Off-Earth: Ethical Questions and Quandaries for Living in Outer Space

Erika Nesvold explores the complex ethical challenges that accompany space settlement, highlighting the need for global input and collaboration. She examines historical and contemporary examples from diverse perspectives to shed light on potential pitfalls and encourage a hopeful conversation about becoming a multi-planet species.

As we move towards establishing human presence in outer space, it's essential to consider the broader implications of our actions. Nesvold challenges us to think critically about the environment, labor rights, medical ethics, and other issues that arise when venturing beyond Earth. By engaging with these questions, we can work towards creating a more equitable and sustainable future for all humanity.
