Space travel has never seemed as attractive as during the throes of the COVID-19 lockdown. The change of scenery, crystal-clear nighttime skies and virus-killing environment might prove a welcome relief from endless days in our home offices — not to mention the ready excuse to skip Zoom meetings on account of interference from those darn Martian dust storms.

But space travel is no walk in the park. Depending on your destination, the nearest sheriff and courthouse may be days if not months away. Reliance on the laws would rapidly devolve into a bet on the morality of your neighbors.

There are laws in space, like there are laws on the open seas — though, you can't get from one to the other by just adding water. Space is different. It's a understatement to say its unchartered, and the laws reflect that.

Whether drafting a license on data privacy in outer space or responding to a query from SpaceX on liability for damages caused by that Tesla Roadster it shot into space, the licensing professional needs to know where to begin the search for applicable law. Join the experts in a discussion of law that is out of this world.
