The topics in this 11 minute segment focused on private enterprise in space and the establishment of space property rights. We talked about the current situation regarding space property rights, the Outer Space Treaty, Benefit Sharing, The Moon Treaty, and the need to have property rights to support commercial space development. We also talked about Rand’s concept, “Homesteading the Final Frontier” which supports the idea of land claims.
