IN-SPACe Issues Guidelines for Planned Re-entry of Space Objects in India
India's IN-SPACe has issued new guidelines requiring prior authorisation for any planned re-entry of space objects by Indian entities, whether within or outside Indian territory. Foreign entities must obtain approval through Indian-incorporated companies. The rules exclude natural re-entries where objects burn up completely and focus on minimizing risks to people, property, and the environment. These measures align with the Indian Space Policy 2023 and aim to ensure safe, controlled de-orbiting of satellites and spacecraft.
