What would you say to me if I told you that I owned moon and I'd be willing to sell you some land there at a good price...You'd probably think I were nuts or tell me to get lost, right? Why heck would anyone buy land on moon? Now, what if I told you that someone has already tried this? And, what if I told you that he is now a multi-millionaire and soon to be a billionaire due to his moon real estate deals?If this sounds like a joke to you, please read on, because this is no joke. The sale of lunar property has been ongoing for over twenty years by Lunar Embassy, which is only company in world to possess a legal basis and copyright for sale of lunar, and other extraterrestrial property within confines of our solar system.
The biggest support of this claim has been in form of actual lunar landowners such as two former US presidents, NASA employees and many well-known celebrities such as Tom Hanks and John Travolta.
So, how did I find out about this? While I was watching TV in Japan! Yeah, they had a half hour story on this guy and I just couldn't believe it. Anyways, Dennis founder had been in real estate business back in 70's and he had a really hard time. He just couldn't sell and ended up frustrated and destitute in a parking lot sitting in his open top car wondering what to do with his life. While he was looking up at sky he saw moon. He suddenly had an idea strike him. He thought to himself that if he could buy land on moon and sell it, he'd become rich.
So that is exactly what he did. Now, he had a real hard time in beginning. Many lawyers turned him down on his crazy idea but he never gave up. Finally he found a good lawyer that would help him get started legally. Being in moon real estate business meant he had to have strong legal foundations of course.
He and his lawyer discovered that 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 US Government Office of claim registries.
