<p>That's my point. What is the issue of they using the already
owned prefixes they got from their respective RIR and if necessary
request more ?</p>

This is quite serious. Space agencies are already using IP for space missions. That only looks to expand. Today they are using random IPv4 allocations from their own prefixes. They foresee many additional missions and collaboration between agencies to provide communications backup. If nothing changes, this will become another swamp.
Folks are welcome to attend the TIPTOP WG meeting and meet the folks working on this.
Cheers,
Tony
