In 2017-2018, I produced and hosted a podcast miniseries called Making New Worlds, exploring the potential ethical and human rights issues we might face during space settlement. I interviewed a number of experts in philosophy, history, sociology, law, and social justice to imagine how their work can prepare us for building a better future in space.

You can listen to all thirteen Making New Worlds episodes (or read the transcripts) on the podcast website. I’ve also expanded the podcast into a book, titled Off-Earth: Ethical Questions and Quandaries for Living in Outer Space.
