Where is the "1986 Outer Space Act"?
Where is the "1986 Outer Space Act", referred to in this March 2011 BBC piece, and used in the British space programme Wikipedia article? I don't find it mentioned in any of the Wikipedia lists of British Acts of Parliament, nor statutory lists.
Here is the {{full}} citation for further use: <ref name=bbc20110323>

The government says it has recognised the success the British space sector has achieved in recent years and wants to offer it further support to maintain and grow its global market position. ... The 1986 Outer Space Act is the primary piece of legislation in Britain governing all matters to do with space activity.''}}</ref>

- Thanks very much Tim! for you quick response, and addition of the space act to the appropriate UK legislation list. I have modified a link in British space programme, which I had previously inserted, to make it come to this article and section now. You might want to take a look to see if you think I did it right. Cheers. N2e (talk) 05:25, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
