We hear more and more about space mining projects—companies are interested in mining asteroids, and the European Commission is exploring the idea of mining the Moon for critical raw materials. But what would be mined? How? And would it be ethical and legal?

In this episode, Euronews Tech Talks sits down with several experts to discuss these questions: Ian Crawford, a professor of planetary science at the University of London; Jill Stuart, an academic at the London School of Economics; Pierfrancesco Biasetti, a researcher at the Summer School in Space Ethics at the University of Padua; Erik Persson, a philosophy professor at Lund University; and Kathryn Halder, director of the European Space Resources Innovation Centre (ESRIC).
