Outer space is critical to our daily lives in countless invisible ways - but space is not protectedby the same environmental rules that applies on Earth. Space lawyers tend to conclude thatspace is not part of 'the environment', based on a common interpretation of the four core spacetreaties, especially Article IX of the Outer Space Treaty. This legal conclusion rests upon certainhistorical presumptions that are rarely considered in their own right. By assessing environmentallaw in space by reference to history, this thesis will explicate these presumptions, reassessingthe environmental status of space from the ground up.

外层空间以无数看不见的方式对我们的日常生活至关重要--但太空并不受适用于地球的同样环境规则的保护。根据对四项核心空间条约，特别是《外层空间条约》第九条的共同解释，空间律师倾向于得出结论，认为空间不是“环境”的一部分。这一法律的结论是建立在某些历史假设之上的，而这些假设本身很少被考虑。本文将通过对空间环境法的历史评价，阐明这些假设，重新审视空间环境的现状。
