Outer Space Governance, Satellite Surveillance Expansion
The UN policy brief titled The Future of Outer Space Governance outlines plans for a Lunar Gateway station and manned missions to Mars.

This space-based infrastructure is presented as a critical component for monitoring compliance with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
