Abstract

Satelliti e oggetti spaziali hanno agevolato la vita sulla Terra durante la pandemia Covid-19 tramite l’uso delle tecnologie digitali che hanno consentito di mantenere relazioni personali, sociali e lavorative. Un sistema complesso che si articola nello Spazio che nell’immaginario collettivo appare pulito e incontaminato, ma che è affollato e inquinato da detriti spaziali che possono compromettere gran parte delle attività da cui dipendiamo. Il contributo analizza questo contesto dal punto di vista degli accordi internazionali sullo Spazio e delle recenti attività legate alla mitigazione e bonifica dei detriti spaziali, per promuovere il tema della sostenibilità nello Spazio con un approccio integrato a quello della Terra, in modo da considerare lo Spazio e le sue risorse come ‘capitale naturale’ e ‘ambiente umano’ nell’Agenda 2030.
