after ten years of negotiations between nearly 100 nations, the outer space treaty opened for signature on january 27, 1966. it entered into force as the constitution for outer space on october 10, 1967. the outer space treaty was well received; it was ratified by ninety-six nations and signed by an additional twenty-seven states. the outcome has been that the basic foundation of international space law consists of five (arguably four) international space treaties, along with various written resolutions and declarations. the main international treaty is the outer space treaty of 1967; it is generally viewed as the "constitution" for outer space. by ratifying the outer space treaty of 1967, ninety-eight nations agreed that outer space would belong to the "province of mankind", that all nations would have the freedom to "use" and "explore" outer space, and that both these provisions must be done in a way to "benefit all mankind". the province of mankind principle and the other key terms have not yet been specifically defined (jasentuliyana, 1992). critics have complained that the outer space treaty is vague. yet, international space law has worked well and has served space commercial industries and interests for many decades. the taking away and extraction of moon rocks, for example, has been treated as being legally permissible.
