Does anyone own the moon?

[sueKay]

How much is it for an acre? I'm looking for a holiday home

Space cows! Space cows own the moon!

Okay, seriously though, I think my mom printed off a couple of those things too... I forget. It's kind of silly.

And because of the whole thing of owning bits of the moon, the silly war. *shrug*

Actually, i remember being a kid when my mom asked if i wanted to own part of the moon. I told her if i can't play with it, i wnat nothing to do with it.

What I'd like to know is if Aliens landed on the moon and set up a colony on someone else's land... whos going to tell them where to go?

[Blue Banrigh]

How do you go about buying up land on the moon?

[P-90_177]

Personally I have no idea. It was my sister that got it me as a present. Over the internet I know that much and it doesn't cost much to buy an acre of it.

Ok, for anyone who wants a serious answer

Legal status

Though several flags of the United States have been symbolically planted on the moon, the U.S. government makes no claim to any part of the Moon's surface. The U.S. is party to the Outer Space Treaty, which places the Moon under the same jurisdiction as international waters. This treaty also restricts use of the Moon to peaceful purposes, explicitly banning weapons of mass destruction (including nuclear weapons) and military installations of any kind. A second treaty, the Moon Treaty, was proposed to restrict the exploitation of the Moon's resources by any single nation, but it has not been signed by any of the space-faring nations.

Several individuals have made claims to the Moon in whole or in part, though none of these claims are generally considered credible

This is very interesting... there are still a few folks left on my Christmas list, and I've been scratching my head about what to get them. I'm going to have to consider this. *makes note to ask Dad if he thinks anyone in his family would get a kick out of this*

I own the moon, actually. I won it in a poker game with two pair and a whole lot of bluff.
