Abstract
Freeland reviews the existing framework of the international law of outer space to understand the specific areas of legal uncertainty that space tourism activities may give rise to. The corpus of space law that already exists represents an important base from which to develop the legal tools to properly regulate the next stage of space activities. The broader philosophical and ethical aspects of human activities in outer space demand that one continually reassess the why and what in relation to the ongoing exploration and use of outer space.
