Has article VI or VII of the Outer Space Treaty ever been invoked?
<p>Article VI of the Outer Space Treaty states</p>
<blockquote>
<p>States Parties to the Treaty shall bear international responsibility for national activities in outer space, including the moon and other celestial bodies, whether such activities are carried on by governmental agencies or by non-governmental entities, and for assuring that national activities are carried out in conformity with the provisions set forth in the present Treaty. The activities of non-governmental entities in outer space, including the moon and other celestial bodies, shall require authorization and continuing supervision by the appropriate State Party to the Treaty. When activities are carried on in outer space, including the moon and other celestial bodies, by an international organization, responsibility for compliance with this Treaty shall be borne both by the international organization and by the States Parties to the Treaty participating in such organization.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Article VII of the Outer Space Treaty states</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Each State Party to the Treaty that launches or procures the launching of an object into outer space, including the moon and other celestial bodies, and each State Party from whose territory or facility an object is launched, is internationally liable for damage to another State Party to the Treaty or to its natural or juridical persons by such object or its component parts on the Earth, in the air or in outer space, including the moon and other celestial bodies.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Has this article ever been enforced? If so, how?</p>
