The exploration of space raises new problems in the expression of
human freedoms. While the potential to establish new
extraterrestrial settlements is thrilling, it also brings along a
myriad of decisions to consider when addressing how these
settlements should operate in a way which maintains human
liberties. In this book, many dimensions of freedom in space are
discussed. Aspects of liberty beyond Earth, from the near term:
freedom to claim satellite orbits, to the very long-term: freedom
on interstellar worldships, are considered. Gathering a diverse set
of expertise from scientists, ethicists, lawyers, philosophers and
social scientists, they seek to collectively answer questions such
as: How should early governance structures be assembled? What are
the ideal forms of institutions, from science academies to schools
and governments? What freedoms can people expect in space and how
will governance beyond Earth tread the fine line between authority
and liberty? A compelling analysis of liberties on Earth, the solar
system, and beyond - this text is bound to inspire the interests of
academics and scientists alike.
