Abstract

With one of the oldest national space programs in the world, Indonesia is a driving force in the development and utilisation of space technologies in Asia–Pacific. Since its foundation in 1963, the National Institute of Aeronautics and Space (LAPAN) has conducted advanced research and development in satellite and rocket technologies, in accordance with ambitious and carefully crafted national space laws, regulations and policies. In this chapter, Professor Ida Bagus Rahmadi Supancana provides a comprehensive historical overview of the Indonesian national space development program with a strong emphasis on law and policy. Then, he outlines possible future directions of national space efforts, based on a thorough analysis of the Indonesian government’s latest strategies and roadmaps for space activities.
