About Episode 144
The importance of space safety spans the lifetime of an entire effort – from design and launch to operations and demise. The International Association for the Advancement of Space Safety (IAASS) brings together experts from across the world to explore technical and governance solutions to better maintain and sustain space activities on Earth, in orbit, and beyond. In this episode Colleen Stover of the Center for Space Policy and Strategy goes on-location to the 13th annual IAASS conference “Building a Safe, Secure, and Sustainable Space” held in Prague, Czech Republic. Stover interviews some key participants about some of these. Topics are:
- Increased launch and risk in the US with Maj. Gen. Sean Choquette, US Air Force Chief of Safety
- Applying the Outer Space Treaty to operational norms with Professor Andrea Harrington, Institute of Air and Space Law, McGill University, Quebec
- Technical challenges of lunar rescue with Tommaso Sgobba, Executive Director, IAASS
- Streamlining commercial launch and reentry in Australia with Justin Hill, Director Flight Safety, Australian Space Agency.
