Recent years have seen the development and use of highly maneuverable satellites capable of conducting autonomous rendezvous and proximity operations in low-earth and geosynchronous orbits. Accompanying this technology is an emerging security threat fostered by unannounced and uncoordinated close approaches. In response to this security threat and a host of other inherently dual-use outer space activities, this thesis considers the legality of unilaterally declared safety and security zones around critical space objects in outer space. First, the work analyzes the interaction between a Russian military satellite and an Intelsat commercial satellite as an example of the emerging threat. It then examines Cold War era proposals for the creatio...
