The United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) is the main UN body responsible for fostering international cooperation in the peaceful exploration and utilization of outer space. This committee discusses and addresses issues related to space security, satellite technology, space sustainability, international regulations and the preservation of outer space as a resource for all mankind.

Recently, space is growing more important for purposes like communication, navigation, scientific research, and national security, therefore, ensuring stability and collaboration beyond Earth has become a serious concern in the modern era. UNOOSA serves as a forum for countries and governments to address new risks, create international norms and work closely with large space corporations like NASA, SpaceX, and Blue Origin to develop collaborative solutions to promote the responsible use of outer space.
