The same place they get things like the "Outer Space Treaty", another UN brainchild from the 60's (1967). A bunch of non-space-enabled countries making up policy for enabled space countries to govern their actions in a place many of them will never travel to, nor do any of them have any sovereignty over. It's idiotic stuff like this which makes the UN just laughable.
My counter to that (over in an ATS post) was...I wonder what the UN has to say about the Council of E.T.'s who have decided the fate of Earth as one of their domains? Equally as laughable, though not quite as much as the UN.
