What rules will guide us when the sky is no longer the limit?
As humanity prepares to settle the Moon, mine asteroids, and build cities on Mars, the question of how we govern ourselves beyond Earth has never been more urgent. Law in the Stars explores the fragile, fascinating evolution of space law-from Cold War treaties to private mining ambitions, from orbital debris to philosophical questions of ownership, justice, and meaning in the cosmos.
In clear, literary prose, this book journeys through the surreal edges of legal thought: suing across dimensions, owning exoplanets, writing treaties for worlds we haven’t touched. Along the way, it confronts the moral weight of infinite frontiers and asks whether humanity can learn to govern not only with power, but with care.
This is not a manual. It is a mirror-held up to Earth from the darkness beyond it. And it asks one simple, impossible question:
What kind of civilization are we becoming, out there among the stars?
