I had a fun chat with John Batchelor and David Livingstone about the Outer Space Treaty and related issues on their show Hotel Mars. The podcast is now available on John Batchelor’s site here, where I understand it will remain for a week or two. Just to be clear, I’m sure that I said the Outer Space Treaty was flexible, rather than that it contained loopholes. “Loopholes” makes something sound like a bug, not a feature. Also, the podcast is available permanently on David Livingston’s The Space Show site here.
If you like a little science fiction with your space law, check out Manx Prize or The Sky Suspended.
