Register Today For Our Space Cafe “Moriba’s Vox Populi #03” On 11 February 2021

In honor of this sacred experience and all of you who know me and have enrolled in this global vision, I, Dr. Moriba Jah have partnered with SpaceWatch.Global to run an exciting Space Café series: Moriba’s Vox Populi (Latin for “the people’s voice”) where I intend to choose topics of relevance to space safety, security, and sustainability and have an hour long “chill in a lounge chair” type conversation amongst people.

Our third session will focus on:

The Role of Theology in Space Exploration and Sustainability and the tension between ethical considerations for how to behave in space and increased space commerce and technologies that can benefit humanity. People want their culture and beliefs respected and honored but this may be at odds with launching and exploring as much stuff in space as is legal.

  • Is there a place and a desire to reach a compromise?
  • Do we need globally agreed upon norms of behavior in space sustainability and exploration?

It will be live…that keeps it real. I go unscripted and am not into luring people into traps or anything of the sort. I just want open, organic, and real dialog that connects to humanity!

This session will allow for some candid discussion about this, and raise awareness globally about this issue. I’m all about having inclusive dialogs!

This will be what we will explore together on our next session of Space Café: Moriba’s Vox Populi. Please join us for a candid and inclusive conversation.

My guests are:

  • Brother Guy Consolmagno – Director, The Vatican Observatory. (Catholic perspective)
  • Harel Ben-Ami – Delegate, Israel Space Agency to the United Nations. (Jewish perspective)
  • Ari Leon – Senior Project Planning and Control Analyst, Parker Aerospace. (Buddhist perspective)
  • Hdeel Abdelhady – Professorial Lecturer in Law, George Washington University (Islamic perspective)
  • Andreas Losch – Faculty of Theology, University of Bern, Switzerland and Editor-in-Chief, Dialog Theology & Science. (Protestant perspective)
  • Ramakrishnananda Saraswathi Samiji (Hindu perspective)

Moriba’s Vox Populi will be a disruptor in the current growing ocean of webcasts, I can promise you that! I’m really excited! After all, I am a SpaceWatcher!

You, the audience, have a role in shaping the conversations we’re having, adding to our voices; as such you will have an opportunity to ask questions in our session.

SpaceWatch.Global is a Switzerland-based digital magazine and portal for those interested in space and the far reaching impact of the space sector.

This Space Café “Moriba’s Vox Populi” will be conducted in English.
