About
Dr. Eleonora Bassi is a leading scholar at the intersection of space law, artificial intelligence ethics, and international governance. Her work confronts the urgent normative challenges posed by emerging technologies in outer space, particularly as privatization and AI-driven systems outpace existing legal frameworks. In her highly influential 2023 paper, "The Normative Challenges of AI in Outer Space: Law, Ethics, and the Realignment of Terrestrial Standards," Bassi systematically maps four distinct categories of legal issues—ranging from liability for autonomous systems to the ethical realignment of Earth-based standards—that experts must urgently address. This work has already garnered 20 citations, signaling its foundational role in shaping a nascent field. Bassi’s major contribution lies in bridging terrestrial legal principles with the unique, multi-jurisdictional realities of space, offering a roadmap for policymakers and technologists alike. Her research is distinguished by its forward-looking clarity, tackling both the “old” troubles of space law and the unprecedented dilemmas of AI autonomy. For students and researchers, Bassi’s scholarship is essential reading for understanding how law and ethics can evolve to govern humanity’s next frontier.
