The space age is said to have started in 1957, when for the first time a man-made object was lofted into orbit around the Earth. Since that date, the peaceful uses of outer space have been discussed in the United Nations, particularly in the General Assembly and the Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space and its subsidiary bodies. Those discussions have contributed to the conclusion of a number of international agreements concerning both military and peaceful aspects of the use of outer space.
