New Book: "The New Laws of Outer Space"
Ethics, Legislation, and Governance in the Age of Artificial Intelligence
Ugo Pagallo
This book maps out the moral, legal, and societal issues brought forth by the use of autonomous systems such as AI and smart robots in outer space.
It argues that the traditional focus on satellite communications, space-related services, and the appropriability of celestial resources needs to be integrated by new laws of outer space regulating cybersecurity law and environmental law, data governance and consumer protection. The new laws of outer space will increasingly concern the development of new standards for the behaviour and decision-making of AI systems and smart robots, with and without humans aboard deep space missions and in next-generation colonies.
Ugo Pagallo is Professor of Law at the University of Turin, Italy.
