2026-11-10	Griffin Mission One (Griffin-1, NASA Moon Base II)	open evidence gaps	Whether METAL is mounted on Astrolab's FLIP rover (Interlune/Astrolab 2025 release) or on the lander deck; msn-interlune-metal-camera points here directly, skipping FLIP.	Interlune's 15 September 2026 blog says the company funded METAL's flight on Astrolab's FLIP rover; NASA's Moon Base Phases page lists METAL among Griffin-1 payloads and does not name FLIP in that section. The mounting on FLIP is therefore company-stated, not confirmed by the reviewed NASA section.	Interlune

NASA recorded interim milestones on its regolith contract in 2022. Completed MAGPIE Mission Definition Review (Sept 2025) and received the EUR 65 million ESA Phase 2 contract (July 2026).

2026-11-03	UAE Federal Law No. 12 of 2019 on the Regulation of the Space Sector (space resources provisions)	resource provisions (paraphrase)	Art. 18 subjected exploration, exploitation and use of space resources (including acquisition, purchase, sale, trade, transport and storage) to permits whose conditions are set by Council of Ministers decision and which are granted by the Agency's Board; Art. 8 of the 2023 Decree-Law that replaced it carries the same permit provision in near-identical wording. Neither law itself states an ownership rule; per a law-firm summary, Cabinet Decision No. 19/2023 provides that operators may exercise ownership rights recognised under UAE law over resources obtained through authorised activities.	Art. 18 subjected exploration, exploitation and use of space resources (including acquisition, purchase, sale, trade, transport and storage) to permits whose conditions are set by Council of Ministers decision and which are granted by the Agency's Board; Art. 8 of the 2023 Decree-Law that replaced it carries the same permit provision in near-identical wording. Neither law itself states an ownership rule. A historical 2023 law-firm summary described ownership rights under Cabinet Decision No. 19/2023. That secondary description is not confirmation of the current ownership rule or of the content, commencement or repeal provisions of Cabinet Resolution No. 204/2025.	Watson Farley & Williams
