Artemis Accords
The Artemis Accords are an international agreement between governments participating in the Artemis Program, an American-led effort to return humans to the Moon by 2024, and to ultimately expand and deepen space exploration. 

Drafted under the auspices of U.S. space agency, NASA, the Accords establish a framework for cooperation in the civil exploration and peaceful use of the Moon, Mars, and other astronomical objects. They are explicitly grounded in the United Nations Outer Space Treaty of 1967, which signatories are obliged to uphold, and cite most of the major UN-brokered conventions constituting space law (except the Moon Treaty, despite Australia having ratified it).

The Accords were signed on 13 October 2020 by the directors of the national space agencies of eight countries: the United States, Australia, Canada, Japan, Luxembourg, Italy, the United Kingdom, and the United Arab Emirates. Since then, Ukraine, South Korea, New Zealand and Brazil have also become signatories, and the Accords remain open for signature indefinitely, as other nations are expected to join.
