As space travel—and eventually space tourism—becomes commonplace, liability of this public-private partnership to third parties will merit substantial exploration and consideration, not just by scholars, but by those in the insurance industry, Segal McCambridge attorneys say.
While the world recently marveled at Elon Musk sending two astronauts into orbit as part of SpaceX's public-private partnership with NASA, lawyers wondered what they always wonder about: liability.

In space, bacteria is even more deadly and resilient to antibiotics
China recently launched its Tianwen-1 mission to Mars. A rocket holding an orbiter, lander and rover took flight from the country's Hainan province, with hopes to deploy the rover on Mars's surface by early next year.
Similarly, the launch of the Emirates Mars Mission marked the Arab world's foray into interplanetary space travel. And on July 30, we saw NASA's Mars Perseverance rover finally take off from Florida.
For many nations and their people, space is becoming the ultimate frontier. But although we're gaining the ability to travel smarter and faster into space, much remains unknown about its effects on biological substances, including us.

Space dads Bob and Doug are back from their historic journey, it's time to let the data do the talking.
CBS News space correspondent Bill Harwood said all the info now has to be analyzed before we can declare Dragon's mission a success.

When Neil Armstrong stepped onto the surface of the moon in July 1969, many Americans dreamed of lunar colonies and manned trips to Mars.
NASA astronauts cap historic 'odyssey' aboard SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule -
(Reuters) - U.S. astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley, who flew to the International Space Station in SpaceX’s new Crew Dragon, splashed down in the Gulf of Mexico on Sunday after a two-month voyage that was NASA’s first crewed mission from home soil in nine years.
Behnken and Hurley, tallying 64 days in space, undocked from the station on Saturday and returned home to land their capsule in calm waters off Florida’s Pensacola coast on schedule at 2:48 p.m. ET following a 21-hour overnight journey aboard Crew Dragon “Endeavor.”
You can book a weightless flight with Zero Gravity again after hiatus due to coronavirus | Space
Zero Gravity Corporation ( Zero-G ), a company that offers weightless experiences so you can floatt like an astronaut, is returning to the skies after taking a pause during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
Zero-G takes paying customers on "zero gravity" flights, or parabolic flights during which an aircraft flies in alternating upward and downward arcs to create a microgravity environment in the cabin. Some passengers fly for the thrill of weightlessness , while scientists use the plane toconductmicrogravity experiments, but everybody on board floats for brief periods of time during the flights..
