论外层空间物体的登记国

外层空间物体的登记国是指依《登记公约》进行登记的一个发射国。当存在多个发射国时,应当共同决定登记国。在无法达成一致时,应按照一定的规则确定登记国。如果外层空间物体所有权转移给其他发射国,可以进行变更登记;如果转移给非发射国,则不能由非发射国进行登记,但非发射国可以对外层空间物体行使管辖权或控制权。外层空间物体的登记对登记国具有一定的法律效果。

A Study on State of Registry on Outer Space Object

A state of registry on outer space object means a launching state on whose registry an outer a space object is carried in accordance with the Registration Convention.In the case there are two or more launching states in respect of outer space object,they should jointly determine which one of them should be the state of registry.If no consensus was reached,the state of registry should be determined according to a specific rule.When the ownership of an outer space object was transferred to another launching state,a modified registration should be carried out.However,with respect to the transfer of ownership to a non launching state,the state is not qualified as a state of registry.In this case,the outer space object is under the jurisdiction and control of the non-launching state.Some legal effect arose from the registration of outer space objects by the state of registry.
