Space Resources and Legislation

Throughout the five episodes of Resourceful, we have had a chance to exchange with scientists, entrepreneurs and engineers, but we had not involved the regulatory experts into the conversation yet. In this sixth episode, Steven Freeland, professor at Western Sydney University and Bond University, and Vice-Chair, United Nations COPUOS Working Group on Legal Aspects of Space Resource Activities and Antonino Salmeri from Lunar Policy Platform are joining the conversation, telling us more about the big regulatory questions that arise when we ⁠make great ⁠plans for space exploration. Listen until the end to discover some links with previous episodes and understand how everything comes together. Spoiler alert: we will be looking back at the first episode where we explored the Antarctica model together with Katherine Joy. Sources: www.esric.lu/news-media/podcasts
