Acre Of The Moon

With regard to extraterrestrial property sales two treaties exist today.These treaties do not refer to ownership as such they more commonly refer to the exploitation of the Moon and other celestial bodies for profit purposes and extraterrestrial property sales distinctly fall under that section. The treaties are The Outer Space Treaty of 1967 and the Moon Treaty of 1984.The Outer Space Treaty of 1967 explicitly forbids any government from claiming a celestial resource such as the Moon or a planet.What is the Moon Treaty and why is it not lawThe Moon Treaty had it been ratified would have forbidden the exploitation of Space the Moon and other celestial bodies for profit motives. According to the Moon treaty individuals may not claim the Moon and other celestial bodies.But of all the 185 or so member states of the UN only six states supported it. All others including all space faring nations USA UK Russia China etc refused to sign it. This is something that does not seem to be well known. The USA explicitly refused to sign it as it would inhibit the exploitation of Lunar and other celestial resources for profit by corporations and individuals.We feel that the non ratification of the Moon Treaty is a good thing. If it had been ratified and oil was found on the Moon any company would by law be prohibited from mining it. Surely that is not in the public's interest. and if you find it on your property... well congratulations...you could be very rich!And the most important pointIn all of that let's not miss the most important point of all....and it specifically applies to the Moon What is the Moon to usThe Moon is a symbol of hope romance achievement and change all rolled into one. There is nothing more symbolic and romantic on Earth one can give to a loved one. It is not a fad we can toy with it is not something that will ever lose its appeal. When you buy your property on the Moon or any other planet please enjoy it because that is what this really is all about. You can look into the night sky and say 'I own a piece of that!'
