Resumo: | The exploration of natural resources in outer space, including minerals, is getting closer and closer to becoming technologically possible and will no longer be mere science fiction. Projects point to the exploration of the Moon's natural resources and asteroids. The potential depletion of natural resources has led researchers to seek alternatives outside the Earth, including the exploitation of natural resources in outer space. This article aims to study the current regulatory frameworks on the subject and to show the competence of international law to set forth international standards related to the exploration and use of natural resources in outer space. The regulation absence on the subject tends to raise new national laws, that generates normative competition, whose rules may not be in compliance with the peremptory rules international space law. The increase in private companies in space activities intensifies the public-private partnership. However, sustainability for the exploitation and use of natural resources in outer space must comply with the principle of global public interest - that is, the interest of the entire international community and of all countries, regardless of the degree of development, by the 1967 Outer Space Treaty. Based on the qualitative analysis, the result of this research reveals the need to adopt international standards that regulate and determine the applicable law to such activities, even if it starts with soft law standards at a global level. In addition, this article suggests a creation of an international authority for natural resources outer space, to centralize and control activities towards sustainable management in the exploration and use of space mineral resources. |

Projetos apontam para a exploração de recursos naturais da Lua e de asteroides. O potencial esgotamento de recursos naturais tem levado pesquisadores a buscar alternativas fora da Terra, entre elas a explotação de minerais no espaço exterior. Este artigo tem por objetivo estudar as formas atuais de regulação sobre o assunto e demonstrar a competência do direito internacional para estabelecer normas internacionais relativas à mineração no espaço exterior. A ausência de regulação sobre o assunto tende ao surgimento de leis nacionais, que engendram uma competição normativa, cujas normas podem não estar em conformidade com as normas peremptórias de direito internacional espacial. O aumento de empresas privadas nas atividades espacias intensifica a parceria público-privada. Entetanto, a sustentabilidade para a exploração e o uso de recursos naturais do espaço exterior devem atender ao princípio do interesse público global ”“isto é, o interesse de toda a comunidade internacional e de de todos os países, independentemente do grau de desenvolvimento, em conformidade com o Tratado do Espaço Exterior, de 1967. A partir da análise qualitativa, o resultado desta pesquisa revela a necessidade de se adotar normas internacionais que regulem e determinem a lei aplicável a tais atividades, ainda que se inicie por normas de soft law em nível global. Além disso, este artigo sugere a criação de uma autoridade internacional para recursos naturais espaço exterior, a fim de centralizar e controlar as atividades rumo a uma gestão sustentável na exploração e usos de recursos minerais espaciais.FACULDADE DE DIREITO - UnB2020-12-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/revistadedireitounb/article/view/34853Direito.UnB - Juristisches Journal der Universität Brasília; Bd. 4 Nr. 3 (2020): Setembro - Dezembro | Edição Especial - Aviação Civil e Direito Espacial: aspectos regulatórios nacionais e internacionais ; 139-161Direito.UnB - Law Journal of the University of Brasília; Vol. 4 No. 3 (2020): September - December; 139-161Direito.UnB - Revista de Derecho de la Universidad de Brasília; Vol. 4 Núm. 3 (2020): Septiembre - Dieciembre; 139-161Direito.UnB - Revue de Droit de l'Université de Brasília; Vol. 4 No. 3 (2020): Septembre - Décembre; 139-161Direito.UnB - Revista de Direito da Universidade de Brasília; v. 4 n. 3 (2020): Setembro - Dezembro | Edição Especial - Aviação Civil e Direito Espacial: aspectos regulatórios nacionais e internacionais ; 139-1612357-8009reponame:Direito.Unb (Online)instname:Universidade de Brasília (UnB)instacron:UNBporhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/revistadedireitounb/article/view/34853/28472Copyright (c) 2020 Direito.UnB - Revista de Direito da Universidade de Brasíliahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLopes Matos Carneiro de Farias, Inez Daltio de Farias, Ítalo 2023-11-09T02:19:56Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/34853Revistahttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/revistadedireitounb/PUBhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/revistadedireitounb/oairevistafdunb@gmail.com || periodicos.bce@unb.br2357-80092318-9908opendoar:2023-11-09T02:19:56Direito.Unb (Online) - Universidade de Brasília (UnB)false |
