Feature Guest: Lorna Jean Edmonds
As our civilization moves out into the solar system
and beyond, will we be ready to govern ourselves in a way better
than we have here on Earth? Today we're joined at The Star Spot on
location at the International Space Development Conference 2015 by
space policy thinker and Vice Provost for Global Affairs at
Ohio University, Lorna Jean Edmonds, who believes, “those who
control the galaxy control the world.”
Current in Space
With a new discovery of a Kuiper-belt like phenomena

system? And Dave explains why astronomers are rethinking what they
thought about the oldest nova studied.
