Abstract

This chapter examines the legal implications of the ambitious plans to send manned missions to Mars and establish permanent human presence in outer space announced. It addresses the concept of “colonizing planets” and its potential consequences. It offers an overview of the applicable existing legal norms and presents a number of potential legal scenarios concerning the governance of permanent human habitant in outer space. Even though technology is not completely there yet, we should not wait for the space shuttle to be ready to board in order in the nearest future to start discussing potential legal frameworks required to govern multi-planetary existence.
