"The book will offer the reader fresh perspectives on numerous aspects of space risk, covering both risks to Earth-based activities arising from space events (natural and manmade), and the risks inherent in space activity itself. Drawing on the expertise of contributors from a wide range of disciplines, the book will cover the nature of the physical risks, and appropriate engineering, financial, legal and policy solutions to mitigate them"--
