A spaceport will unlock economic growth and jobs in existing UK industries and regions, while positioning the UK to take advantage of emerging demand for commercial human spaceflight, small satellite launch, microgravity research, parabolic flights, near-space balloon tourism, and eventually high-speed point-to-point travel. Without a specific site selected and looking at the economic impact of a spaceport generically, this report expects the spaceport to deliver approximately £2.5bn and 8,000 jobs to the broader UK economy over 10 years. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1 Executive Summary Our plan is for Britain to have a fully functional, operating spaceport “by 2018. This would serve as a European focal point for the pioneers of commercial spaceflight using the potential of spaceflight experience companies like Virgin Galactic, XCOR and Swiss S3 to pave the way for satellite launch services to follow. -

Introduction The Workshop on Space Law in the 21st Century, coordinated by the International Institute of Space Law (IISL), was held between 20 and 23 July 1999 in Vienna, Austria, as part o f the Third United Nations Conference on the Exploration and Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (UNISPACE III). More than 120 participants attended the Workshop, all contributing to an active discussion on the future of Space Law. The IISL Workshop comprised eight sessions, covering current concerns in the field of space law. Each session began with the presentation of a discussion paper by an invited speaker, followed by invited papers commenting on the discussion paper, as well as informal discussion and comments. At the end of each session, the Coordinator/Rapporteur of the session presented a summary report on significant issues raised in the session and, following a general discussion, the findings, conclusions and recommendations of the session were consolidated in a single document. At the conclusion of the eight substantive sessions, the “Workshop Executive Committee”, consisting of the chairperson of each session, the Workshop Coordinator, and the President of the International Institute of Space Law, who was the overall chairperson of the Workshop, met to discuss the reports of the sessions. The session reports were integrated into the Workshop’s Final Report to the UNISPACE III Conference.
