TORONTO — Chris Hadfield says he’s been working with King Charles on a space sustainability plan dubbed the Astra Carta.
The Astra Carta will explore how humans can use space and settle the moon in a different way than they have settled on Earth, the Canadian astronaut said Tuesday.Sign up to receive daily headline news from the Calgary Herald, a division of Postmedia Network Inc.By clicking on the sign up button you consent to receive the above newsletter from Postmedia Network Inc.

Canadians should think of some of the issues it will raise as if we have just discovered an untapped continent, he said. “And how are we going to self-govern? If you kill somebody on the moon, whose court are you appearing in?”“How we settle the moon is how we’re going to settle every place we go after.”
When it was first drafted, Hadfield said it was rejected by the public and eventually rewritten. He expects the Astra Carta to evolve as well and to draw interest from policymakers.
