Research Salon #5: Registration Mechanisms for the Moon

Our next Moon Dialogs salon will be on Registration Mechanisms for the Moon. We will be focusing on operational considerations and how the current registration systems for space objects may need to evolve for the lunar context.

Jessy Kate Schingler will kick off a moderated discussion with our two guest discussants, Michael Newman and Jonathan McDowell. Michael is the Legal Officer for UN OOSA, which maintains the official registry of space objects for the world; and Jonathan independently maintains what is probably the largest database of artificial space objects in the world.
