Who does the moon belong to?

[The best and greatest]

I mean its our fucking flag on it. So really who does the moon belong to and who gets a say? If were gonna put a base on the moon this question starts becoming more important.

 

[No Exit]

I call dibs.

 

[DumbDude42]

I've always thought that when rocket technology becomes easier for you average loony to obtain/build we're gonna see tons of funny moon related acts of terror.
The american flag is gonna get sent to the sun and we're gonna see flags from future terror groups popping up. It's gonna be wacky fun and I can't wait.

I'm pretty sure we've got international agreements saying nobody is allowed to own any part of celestial bodies besides Earth. That being said, the American flag up there has been bleached by wacky sun radiation over the years, so I think it belongs to the French now?

If it's white they've surrendered, but dunno where's there Germans or Moslems to make their surrender to, and there cheese for the surrender monkeys?

But seriously now whoda moon belong to?

 

[Easterling]

I thought it was the property of a certain Joshua.

 

[The Last Stand]

The moon is its own thing. I don't think you can own it.

Would that mean you'd have to pay royalties?

 

[Lame Entropy]

The Outer Space Treaty says no one owns the moon even if their national flags are on it.

It belongs to the USA and its citizens because we landed there first and called dibs, and also because we own the most nukes.

I question the relevance of some fossil treaty that existed before we as a society needed to seriously contend with how to divy up the resources that exo-planetary bodies represent.

 

[Wraith]

I'm older. I called it decades ago.
I named him Moon-chan.

 

[Dom Cruise]

The Moon people.
