Abstract
Space debris poses a serious threat to existing space exploration, prompting an in-depth exploration of its legal implications and mitigation strategies. This research paper delves into the multifaceted realm of space debris, consisting of its definition, sources, and statistical overview. It examines the international and Indian legal frameworks regulating space debris mitigation, focusing challenges in implementation and compliance. Space debris mitigation strategies, including passive disposal and collision avoidance, are assessed alongside active debris removal technologies. The paper examines the challenges in attribution and accountability, highlighting the role of insurance and compensation mechanisms in mitigating liability. It underscores the environmental impact of space debris, emphasizing the need for international cooperation in crafting unified strategies. The study culminates in recommendations for future perspectives, advocating for enhanced legal frameworks, technological advancements, and global collaboration to safeguard space sustainability.
