"Ethical Concerns Surrounding the Rising Trend of Expensive Moon Burials"

NASA's recent attempt to return to the Moon was met with controversy due to the inclusion of human ashes and commercial payloads on the Peregrine lander. As space exploration becomes increasingly privatized, questions arise about the ethical and legal implications of sending personal mementos and human remains to the Moon. The lack of clear regulations and oversight in international space law presents a challenge as private companies venture into space. The incident highlights the need for a comprehensive legal and ethical framework to govern commercial activities in space, as the prospect of space mining and colonization looms on the horizon.
