Thesis: Taxing Beyond Jurisdiction: Commercial Activity in Outer Space
Space is set to become the newest venue for commerce, with private corporations aiming to extend the economy into the cosmos. With proposed and ongoing activities ranging from space tourism to megaconstellations, from asteroid mining to off-planet colonisation, I ask how we might tax commercial activity in outer space under the current international tax rules, whether there are any lacunae, and, if so, how they might be addressed.
