	Description:		As the world celebrates the 50th anniversary of the first moon landing, Ed Butler asks whether people will soon be routinely working in outer space. A commercial space race is underway with companies preparing for the day when humans set up a lunar base and then move on to Mars. Ed hears from an expert from NASA, a promoter of commercial opportunities for space businesses and from a psychologist about what to expect from a working life in space.
