Abstract

Distinction between airspace and outer space, despite its theoretical benefits and practical effects, has been controversial. The legal system of airspace is based upon sovereignty principle of territorial state; contrary to that of outer space which is based upon freedom to use. Where does space begin or at what altitude does airspace end, determines the domain of states powers in exercising sovereignty over the space. The present study examines with a critical approach the criteria of this distinction, the status of outer space ownership; comparison of airspace with sea area. By resorting to General Principles of Law, due to absence of an accepted legal rule, reliance must be made on incontrovertible criterion under which, the lowest point of an orbital flight to be considered as the beginning of outer space, and, the maximum altitude of a plane capable of flying as the airspace located in the air territory. Given the rules governing outer space are specific regime, where there is doubt as to state sovereignty, its existence should be presumed. Therefore, the area between airspace and outer space is governed by air law.
