The preservation of the space environment against space debris threats requires the development of a legal and regulatory framework. The sustainability and ongoing security of the space environment requires an agreement at international level. The study argues that in order to develop a set of specific rules for the governance and regulation of space debris it might be helpful to draw on similar contexts. First, maritime law on salvage on the high seas, developed by the International Maritime Organization (IMO), can facilitate the approach to abandoned spacecraft. Second, the role of international organizations such as the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) can serve as a point of reference in the development of binding space debris mitigation rules. The development and implementation of such rules will contribute to the successful sustainability of outer space activities.
