    Poland has a long history of space activities: As a former active participant of the Intercosmos program, it is a member of both ESA and UN COPUOS. To respond to the growing demand by research and industry, a national space law has been drafted which implements Article VI of the Outer Space Treaty, as well as aims to accommodate Poland's ambitions in the field of space resources and suborbital activities. The paper analyses the recent Draft, especially in view of the authorization procedure and liability for damage caused by space objects. It compares the outcome with the most recently adopted space law in Europe – the 2020 Space Activities Law of Luxembourg – and informs about the progress in preparing domestic space legislation in the Czech Republic.
