The future of all transnational law is indisputably space law, and I urge anyone reading this to explore issues of space law. A good place to start would be the new blog Res Communis. It is written by four lawyers and researchers at The National Center for Remote Sensing, Air, and Space Law Center, which was founded in 1999 and is housed in the University of Mississippi Law School. The Center publishes the Journal of Space Law, which is the world’s oldest journal dedicated to the topic, and the only one in the United States. Their first couple of posts are very creative and extremely informative, covering everything from the vitality of the Outer Space Treaty to Space Money.
Also, check out the Space Law Probe, which claims to be "not for lawyers and space tourists only." The author Jesse Londin has been writing about space law issues since 2005, and this blog seems to cover everything, including Space Law Moot Court Competitions to brief expositions about moments in the history of space law like the launching of Sputnik.
And then there is the Space Politics blog, which has been around since 2004. It incisively covers what's going on in D.C. regarding the USA's space policies and agendas. If you're wondering how much money is being budgeted for getting to the moon these days or if you're curious about the future of human space flight in UK, then you're going to want to check out this blog. As its tagline states, "Because sometimes the most important orbit is the Beltway..."
