What it is
Space resources governance covers the rules for prospecting, extraction, use, infrastructure, safety zones, and benefit-sharing debates.
Why it matters
Resource activity may become central to long-duration missions, but it also raises legal, environmental, and equity concerns.
Current governance gap
National resource laws and international principles do not yet form a single operational framework.
CGI work
The Lunar Project treats resource support as one part of a wider governance system, not as a standalone commercial question.
