Abstract: 
We justify the advisability of the use of the spectropolarimetric device in preparation for and performance of the space experiments for global continuous long-term control of phenomena on the surface and in the atmosphere of the Earth, in circum-terrestrial space, on the Moon, on solar system planets and on other bright celestial objects.
Keywords: control of phenomena, space experiments, spectropolarimetric device
