Science is fun at the Oxford Science Café! Join us for an exciting presentation by Michelle L. D. Hanlon, Executive Director at the Center for Air and Space Law.

Humanity is poised on a threshold unlike any other in its history. After millennia of being awed by the night sky and centuries of studying the patterns of stars and planets, the vast resources of space are within our grasp. As the commercial space industry grows in influence and importance, complex legal and ethical questions emerge about territory, resource rights, sustainability, equity, and the preservation of the space environment. Join us as we navigate the intricacies, gaps, and inconsistencies of space law and explore what boundaries exist on humans as we expand beyond our Earth and into the Universe.
