SUMMARY:Governance of Global Moon Exploration and Settlement Episode 4: Best Practices for Sustainable Lunar Activities - The way forward
DESCRIPTION:Both the United States and China have revealed their plans to return people to the Moon in the near future. Many other countries\, as well as private companies\, will partner with the U.S. and China in these endeavors. As these missions move forward\, the risk for interference or conflict arising from competition for sunlight\, ice\, and land will grow. In order to reduce this risk\, a set of basic ground rules must be implemented. NASA has begun the process of establishing these rules among its partners in the Artemis Project through a series of bilateral agreements. But the Artemis Accords are aimed to Artemis partners only. The Moon Village Association’s Best Practices for Sustainable Lunar Activity fill this gap by providing a process for developing multilateral ground rules for all countries that are heading to the Moon. \nThe Principles were issued last March by MVA and following 6 months of public consultation\, including several webinars\, will be presented in its present form. \nThis webinar will be the last of the Governance episodes and will present the proposed way forward to implement the Best Practices\, in the short and medium to long term as well as provide a sneak preview of the 1st Online Global Moon Village and Workshop\, 9-10 November where some announcement are expected. \nThe panelists will discuss: \n\nBest Practices for sustainable lunar activities\, updated version\nImplementation strategy:\n\nIn the short term\, as this will reduce the risk of involuntary accidents and harmful interference\, increase confidence building\, promote peaceful cooperation\, and ensure that lunar activities are conducted in a sustainable manner.\nIn the medium to long term\, the importance of COPUOS will be discussed\, to increase the consensus to the Best Practices\, with specific reference to the developing countries.\n\n\nPreliminary Programme of the 1st Online Global Moon Village Workshop & Symposium\n\nRegister on Eventbrite to participate in the webinar: \nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/governance-of-global-moon-exploration-and-settlement-episode-4-tickets-124546839951 \n or watch live on the MVA Facebook Page. \nThe admission in the webinar will be on a first come first served basis. \n\n\nSpeakers: \n\nNiklas Hedman – Chief Committee\, Policy and Legal Affairs Section\, Office for Outer Space Affairs United Nations Office\, Vienna\nGeorge A.

SUMMARY:MVA PAYLOAD - The Overview Effect
DESCRIPTION:Join us to hear perspectives of the MVA payload project goals from leaders in their fields! \nWhen humans first set off for the Moon with the Apollo program\, and in particular the Apollo 8 mission\, they were profoundly moved by what they saw. \nThey’d been further than any human in the history of our planet and were approaching a new world – but it was what they left behind that really changed their perspective. From a distance\, they saw our home – spaceship Earth – “hanging in the void”. \nThis was the first time someone had described the term the “Overview Effect” – a cognitive state of awareness only acquired when being so far away from the Earth itself\, that one becomes overwhelmed by its beauty\, fragility and loneliness in the darkness of space. When you’re far enough from home\, you really get a sense of appreciating it. \nBut not everyone has the same experience of the Overview Effect. For some\, it brought fear and overwhelming feelings of alienation and isolation.  \nWe’re very excited to be collaborating with the Moon Village Association\, to bring together a range of speakers to talk about the wonders of the Overview Effect.  \nSpeakers \n\nLiza Koumi- Moon Village Payloads Project Manager\, Space projects engineer\, and International Space University Alumni\nPhilippe Van Nedervelde- Award winning VR creator\, Advocate for Spaceflight and Futurist.\nAlice Gorman a.k.a Dr Space Junk -Space Archaeologist\, Heritage consultant and Board member of the Space Industry Assocation of Australia and Space4women.\nCarley Scott- CEO of Equitorial Launch Australia- Australia’s Spaceport at 12 Degrees\, Board of Space Industry Association of Australia and CSIRO’s Advanced Manufacturing Academy. .\nVienna Tran\, Moderator of the event\,Space medicine researcher and Writer with Space Australia.\nDr Sarah Jane Pell – Analogue astronaut \, Award winning Artist\, Researcher.\n\nThursday the 29th of October AEST 6:00pm (UTC+11) \, 8:00am CET \nTo register: \nhttps://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/mva-payload-the-overview-effect-tickets-124812009079
