2017 is the 50th anniversary of the Outer Space Treaty. On May 12, 2017 Secure World Foundation and Sherman & Howard partnered to host a breakfast event discussing the ongoing relevancy of the Treaty to commercial space business in Colorado, the United States, and globally. Discussion emphasized the nature of the Treaty as a document of principles, rather than a prescriptive regime and highlighted the foundational role that the Treaty has played in establishing and supporting the global space sector.
