Stand Up for Ethical Space Communication
Commercial space is moving fast. Sign the Space Integrity Pledge to commit — publicly — to accuracy, transparency, and evidence-based communication, and add your name to a growing global network of communicators and organisations holding the sector to a higher standard.

The Ethical Communication Pledge
Four commitments. No fine print. This is what signing actually means.
Accuracy
I will not misrepresent mission outcomes, technical capability, or scientific results in the communications I create or approve.
Transparency
I will disclose material risks, limitations, and conflicts of interest rather than let a story imply more certainty than the facts support.
Lifecycle awareness
I will consider the full lifecycle impact of a mission or product in how it is framed — not just the moment of launch.
Evidence-based messaging
I will back sustainability, safety, and impact claims with evidence I would be comfortable sharing on request.
Why It Matters
A shared standard is only as strong as the number of people visibly holding it.
A crowded, noisy sector
As commercial space activity accelerates, so does the temptation to oversell. A shared, visible standard makes it easier to hold the line.
Peaceful, responsible use
Guided by UN COPUOS principles, signatories support communication that favours the peaceful use of outer space over militarisation.
Public trust is fragile
Every exaggerated claim that gets caught out makes the next honest story harder to believe. Trust compounds — in both directions.
Add Your Signature
Takes under a minute. Your name strengthens the standard for everyone who follows.
Signatories
A curated selection of the communicators and organisations standing behind the Pledge.
“Signing the Pledge is the first, smallest step. The habits it asks for — accuracy, transparency, evidence — are the ones our sector needs most as commercial activity accelerates.”
