The monograph explores space astronomy as a new scientific direction. Space astronomy complements classical astronomy and is its development. Space astronomy can be considered as the astronomy of points of observation of which observations are transferred from the Earth's surface and near-Earth space to space on space carriers. Space astronomy differs from classical astronomy not only by the transfer of observation points into outer space, but also by its methodological and organizational basis. Space astronomy, in addition to the basics of astronomy uses as components new sciences: space geodesy, space geoinformatics, geodesic astronomy, spatial analysis, spatial logic, systems analysis, informatics. The application of spatial logic is one of the features of space astronomy. The main means of observation in space astronomy is space monitoring. The application of the information field model is an important distinction of space astronomy/.
