Who owns what on the moon? Legally, nobody according to the United Nation’s Outer Space Treaty. With an array of space agencies and private companies destined to launch a multitude of lunar missions in the coming decades, the principles of the 1967 treaty will be put to the test. How will we mediate the multiple stakeholders set to explore the moon?
For answers, we turn to space lawyer Antonino Salmeri, who specializes in the governance of space resources and lunar activities. Salmeri is a policy analyst at the Open Lunar Foundation and Co-Chair of the UN’s Space Generation Advisory Council. He holds four advanced degrees in law — a Ph.D. in Space Law from the University of Luxembourg, an Advanced LL.M. in Air and Space Law from the University of Leiden, a second-level LL.M. in EU Law and Policy from the LUISS University of Rome, and a Master Degree in Law from the University of Catania.
From flag planting to moon police, tune in to discover how we are shaping legal frameworks for exploring the moon.
