Abstract
Key tracks in the evolution of international law on outer space are identifi ed and reviewed in light of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. It is suggested that the United Nations sustainable development agenda obliges states to consider the impact of their policies on progress towards the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Priorities for improvements in international law are defi ned, including space litter, the militarisation of outer space, and the protection of the environment of the moon and other space bodies. The probabilities of specifi c scenarios are assessed in light of the prospects for negotiating international treaties on the use of outer space. The author explains the need for innovative international legal solutions that do not impact the foundations of international law.
