Introduction

Instant Genius is a bite-sized masterclass in podcast form. This week we're talking about astro-politics. As space travel becomes more frequent and our occupation of outer space expands, questions are now being raised over how space can be governed. I'm joined by Tim Marshall to discuss this topic. He's the author of the new book The Future of Geography. In this episode he explores everything from the laws and ethics of space, how we can get there, and even how we can generate more energy as a planet by utilising space.
