5th Space Debris Workshop (January 22-23, 2013, Chofu Aerospace Center, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA)), Chofu, Tokyo, Japan

Space science and technology and their applications, such as satellite communications, Earth observation systems and satellite navigation technologies, provide indispensable tools for achieving viable long-term solutions for sustainable development and can contribute more effectively to efforts to promote thedevelopment of all countries and regions of the world, to improving people's lives. In recent years, the utilization of space has seen an increasing number of States, non-governmental organizations, private sector entities and even universities expanding their presence. In an era where we are seeing space becoming increasingly crowded with new players, the need to show strong commitment to sharing responsibilities and acting responsibly in space to help prevent mishaps, misperceptions and mistrust has never been greater. The proliferation of space debris and the increased possibility of a collision interfering with or causing damage to space objects raises concerns about long term sustainability of space activities, particularly the low-Earth orbit and geostationary orbit environment. With regard to the long term sustainability of outer space, the role of UNCOPUOS and the current status of discussions among the related states will be presented.
