 States (countries) bear international responsibility for all space objects that are launched within their territory.This means that regardless of who launches the space object, if it was launched from State A's territory, or from State A's facility, or if State A caused the launch to happen, then State A is fully liable for damages that result from that space object.If two states work together to launch a space object, then both of those states are jointly and severally liable for the damage that object causes.
