This site claims that there are already over 1,125,000 lunar land owners from 176 countries around the world. To date more than 300 million acres have been issued to people from all walks of life here on planet Earth. The sale of lunar property has been ongoing for 22 years by the Lunar Embassy! Can this be trusted? It's a pretty good investment but I don't know if it holds in court. "The UN Outer Space Treaty of 1967 stipulated that no government could own extraterrestrial property. However, it neglected to mention individuals and corporations. Therefore, under laws dating back from early US settlers, it was possible to stake a claim for land, and register it with the US Government Office of claim registries." Codswallop. Considering that it is not now and never has been US territory as per the above. Unfortunately for the Lunar Embassy, early US settlers had to do more than simply stake a claim. Now ask yourself whether the Lunar Embassy has actually lived on and worked the land. Not to mention the fact that I seriously doubt US law can be enacted on foreign or otherwise unclaimed territory. And since the US can't claim it due to the UN stuff above, US laws about settlers are as irrelevant there as they are here in Oz. In Australia, we call this sort of thing fraud, since they are offering for sale something that they do not have a clear and undisputable title to. In other words it's not theirs to sell. Scammers and crooks in other words. Geoff in Oz |
