This program is presented in partnership with the International Relations Council.

Space exploration is a global affair. People from 47 countries have traveled in space. Five nations have landed spacecraft on the moon. Over 280 astronauts, cosmonauts, and spaceflight participants from over 20 countries have visited the International Space Station in its 25 years orbiting Earth. These missions underscore the value of international cooperation to enhance scientific knowledge, share resources, and build global partnerships.

In this program, space journalist Jeff Foust and a panel of experts will explore the regulatory frameworks related to space cooperation and discuss the importance of maintaining outer space as an arena for international collaboration.
