In this episode, “Privatizing the Moon: Legal Loopholes and Ethical Risks,” we explore the growing influence of private companies like SpaceX and Blue Origin in lunar exploration — and the thorny legal and ethical questions that come with it.
Can the 1967 Outer Space Treaty, which bans national claims on celestial bodies, keep up with the commercial race to extract lunar resources? Are we witnessing a quiet shift toward privatized ownership in space, disguised as exploration?
We dig into:
Legal gray areas around private property rights on the Moon
The ethical risks of corporate-run lunar settlements
How wealth inequality and resource conflicts might play out off-Earth
The clash between planetary protection and profit-driven missions
And whether we need a new Commercial Outer Space Treaty for this new frontier
We also examine the role of AI in space missions and the complex moral terrain it introduces in an environment with no legal precedent.
Join us as we ask: Who gets to decide the Moon’s future — and at what cost?
