Space collision risks trigger new disputes
The article discusses the US Federal Communications Commission's proposed rules to enhance space safety by requiring satellite operators to share real-time tracking data, aiming to reduce collision risks amid a rapidly growing number of satellites in low-Earth orbit.

The new regulations also seek to modernize and streamline satellite licensing processes to support industry growth and improve space sustainability.
