description This article examines the administrative and legal mechanisms for coordinating Ukraine’s space activities during martial law and post-war recovery. Particular attention is paid to the impact of large-scale armed aggression on the development of the space sector as a strategic factor in ensuring national security and defense capability. The paper highlights the main issues in legal regulation, including the fragmentation of the legislative base, inadequate coordination between state bodies, and weak integration of the private sector. Key areas for reform are analyzed, such as the modernization of the State Space Agency of Ukraine, harmonization of national legislation with international standards, and the development of public-private partnerships. The importance of space technologies in military intelligence, navigation, and communication is underscored, as well as the prospects for attracting foreign investment to develop the sector. The article contains recommendations for enhancing the effectiveness of state policy in the field of space activities and integrating Ukraine into the international space community.
