Journalist, broadcaster and best-selling author, Tim Marshall, joins Jon to talk about the power and politics of the new space race.

Tim's new book - The Future Of Geography - looks at how the developments in space will change our world forever.

The new space race is on, with China, USA and Russia leading the charge and many more vying for pre-eminence. But with eighty countries now in space, in some form or another, are the guidelines and laws outdated? And are the countries - and individuals - who are building new technologies to travel to, and exist in, space doing it for the good of others, or for their own financials gains?
