Today is the 19th anniversary of starting this blog! And I'm pleased to have it be #15 on this list of 100 Best Tax Blogs to Follow in 2026.
I'd like to focus this post on space taxation. I've been interested in space exploration since I was in grade school. I wrote an article on space taxation for the 50th Anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing, showing not only space tax issues but that a tax article can be written tied to just about any event. You can see this article in Tax Notes State - here.
On May 20, the ABA Sections of Taxation and Science & Technology are co-sponsoring a free webinar on space taxation (registration link). I encourage you to check it out. There are a variety of tax issues at the federal and state issues such as where certain space activities are taxed, whether tax rules for US activities (such as the deduction and credit for domestic research) includes activity in space, dealing with negative externalities of space waste, and more.
With continuing and growing space activity, particularly by for-profit companies, tax issues and a need for guidance will continue. Let's explore some of this frontier of space taxation in future blogs.
