The U.S. Constitution, Art. I, Sec. 8, cl. 11, states that the Congress shall have the power to &#8220;Declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water.&#8221;\u00a0 According to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.heritage.org\/constitution\/#!\/articles\/1\/essays\/50\/marque-and-reprisal\"><strong>scholars<\/strong><\/a>,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>At the time of the Founding, the sovereign authorized holders of letters of marque and reprisal to engage in hostile actions against enemies of the state. The common understanding of &#8220;Reprisal&#8221; is a seizure of property (or sometimes persons) of a foreign state for redressing an injury committed by that state.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>If the authors do indeed recommend the use of letters of marque, it could mean they recommend the removal of orbital debris with or without the debris owner&#8217;s permission, up to and including the debris of foreign nation states.\u00a0 Would it be better if that&#8217;s not what they mean?<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Regardless of whether the government issued letters of marque or merely entered into contracts with the private sector, would the proposal run afoul of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.unoosa.org\/oosa\/en\/ourwork\/spacelaw\/treaties\/outerspacetreaty.html\"><strong>Article VIII<\/strong> <\/a>of the Outer Space Treaty?\u00a0 Article VIII says that ownership of an object is not changed by it being in space.\u00a0 This suggests that a space object cannot be considered abandoned. \u00a0 Just to make it really hard to hold a civic clean-up day, that same provision says that &#8220;[s]uch objects or component parts found beyond the limits of the State Party to the Treaty on whose registry they are carried shall be returned to that State Party, which shall, upon request, furnish identifying data prior to their return.&#8221;\u00a0 I&#8217;ve heard lots of of people say that one may not salvage in space due to the requirement that objects be returned to the state of registry. Are they right?\u00a0 One would need to check before issuing letters of marque or even taking the more plebeian route available through the Federal Acquisition Regulations.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Could, however, the maritime analog apply here?\u00a0 After all, you can own something terrestrially but abandon it or otherwise sit on your rights.\u00a0 Article VIII says that &#8220;ownership of objects&#8230;is not affected by their presence in outer space.&#8221;\u00a0 Arguably, if ownership is not affected by being in space, all the usual rules of ownership, including principles of abandonment, might not be affected either.\u00a0 There is however, the owners&#8217; pesky anticipation of getting their stuff back if someone else gets a hold of it.\u00a0 Nonetheless, this perspective creates interesting possibilities.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Finally, for anyone sailing the stellar seas under a letter of marque, it might be good to know where liability lies before starting to scavenge in orbit.\u00a0 Personally, I&#8217;d go look at state laws regarding tow truck operations.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I prepared last week&#8217;s post on CNAS&#8217;s proposed\u00a0 Space Policy for the Trump Administration, I did not plan a&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[115,56,63],"class_list":["post-899","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-letters-of-marque","tag-outer-space-treaty","tag-property-rights"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Space Policy Proposal for the Trump Administration - Part 2 (Letters of Marque) - Ground Based Space Matters<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/groundbasedspacematters.com\/index.php\/2017\/11\/06\/space-policy-proposal-trump-administration-part-2-letters-marque\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Space Policy Proposal for the Trump Administration - Part 2 (Letters of Marque) - Ground Based Space Matters\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"When I prepared last week&#8217;s post on CNAS&#8217;s proposed\u00a0 Space Policy for the Trump Administration, I did not plan a&hellip;\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/groundbasedspacematters.com\/index.php\/2017\/11\/06\/space-policy-proposal-trump-administration-part-2-letters-marque\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Ground Based Space Matters\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2017-11-06T12:17:39+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"http:\/\/groundbasedspacematters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Screen-Shot-2017-10-30-at-10.48.12-AM.png\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Laura Montgomery\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Laura Montgomery\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"3 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/groundbasedspacematters.com\/index.php\/2017\/11\/06\/space-policy-proposal-trump-administration-part-2-letters-marque\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/groundbasedspacematters.com\/index.php\/2017\/11\/06\/space-policy-proposal-trump-administration-part-2-letters-marque\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Laura Montgomery\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/groundbasedspacematters.com\/#\/schema\/person\/03ef87affa9138c578663639f4af45be\"},\"headline\":\"Space Policy Proposal for the Trump Administration &#8211;
