A registered 501(c)(3) Pennsylvania Educational Nonprofit Corporation to provide students, researchers,lawyers, and lay people a means by which to understand space law and how we can expect space-based disputes could arise and be adjudicated – even on Mars!The Space Court Foundation manages two major programs. The first program, the Space Court Law Library (SCLL), will be an open-source reference for primary law sources that govern as well as touch and concern space activities. The SCLL will be a web-based reference site and home to the most complete repository of primary source legal documents related to all national and international space law, private and public.The Space Court Foundation is funded by the second program, a YouTube space law series called Stellar Decisis. The show is a collaboration with producer John Michael Godier on his self-titled channel in conjunction with the educational organization Enterprise in Space led by Shawn Case. As of December 2018, John Michael Godier has produced over 300 episodes and currently has over 130,000 subscribers between his two channels. Together, SCF is producing ten, one-hour episodes keyed to space law themes like space resources, crime, law of armed conflict,immigration, space debris, and sovereignty. The show will also produce two specials, one celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Apollo Moon landings and one covering the Manfred Lachs Space Law Moot Court Competition and the IAC in Washington, DC.The premise of the show is that in the near future there is sufficient activity in space such that countries have created a separate permanent court to handle all claims arising from space activities. There are three courts we will introduce in the series: State against State, private against private, and mixed claims arbitration. Each one-hour episode contains a host introduction, an ‘argued case' before the court, a panel of experts to discuss the episode's theme and ‘argued case', and concluding remarks.
