This podcast begins with a conversation over a cup of tea with Thomas Gooch, founder of the Office of Other Spaces, the Office of Planetary Obervations, and the national Australian director of the Moon Village Association. Regular listeners might remember Thomas as the host of the Moon Village Association panel on the Moon in Melbourne in February this year.

The second half of the episode is the audio from the presentation Thomas gave at the conference ‘Property rights and real estate interests in outer space’ which was hosted online by RMIT university on 1 May 2020.

The event was sponsored by:

• The Space Industry Association of Australia
• RMIT School of Property, Construction and Project Management
• Sir Lawrence Wackett Centre
• YK Law

I’d like to thank Rebecca Leshinsky, Sam Le May and the team from RMIT for making this recording available for publication through the Space Junk Podcast.

Because this is a recording from an online conference, the audio is a little crackly, so I suggest listening without headphones.
