Space is a metaphor for the future. Outer space is not just void beyond earth’s atmosphere, but an arena for ceaseless human evolution. When through human industry a small round metal object was shot into space for the first time, a rare opportunity to carry human rights into outer space emerged. Since the inception of the outer space treaty, the relationship between outer space exploration and human rights is grounded on the doctrine of exploration for the philosophical or spiritual benefit of mankind. The technological and scientific advancement of the twenty-first century especially in aerospace engineering and space exploration popularly known as ‘space-age’ along with access and control of information known as ‘information age’ is arguably the defining characteristics of the current era of human civilization. In regard to outer space exploration and exploitation, a very important problem is represented by the conflict between the right of state with respect to sovereignty and the rights of individual in regard to development. Since the appearance of ‘province of mankind’ and ‘benefit of mankind’ provisions in the outer space treaties and agreements, controversy regarding the intent and meaning of the terms in regard to nation’s right to explore and use common environment for not just one’s own benefit but to share benefits derived with the rest of the world has escalated. The availability of freedom of information regardless of frontiers, an integral part of freedom of expression to seek, receive and impart information and ideas as a fundamental consideration among states in space is explored. The impact of right to development in space exploration whether it is a dead-end or does it open new avenues of thinking and possibility of better implementation of human rights in space law from benefit of mankind perspective is examined. The paper explores the conflict and complementary relationship between the two bodies of law and argues that human rights could only f
