Hi All,
This is a very interesting announcment sent to myself.
A Chinese company has been banned from selling plots of land on the moon. NASA reported Today.
The company, Lunar Embassy to China, had sold a total of 49 acres (20 hectares) to 34 customers before authorities acted.
An appeal court on Friday upheld an earlier ruling against the Beijing-based firm which had been selling the lunar plots.
In 2005 the company had its business licence revoked and was fined 50,000 yuan (6,450 dollars) by commerce authorities. It sued but the court ruled against the firm.
Wow,
This is unbeleivable to even contemplate on attempting..
The Moon and All planets and other bodies of the Universe cannot be sold because these bodies are protected against world Space exploration treaties.
Cheers,
Robb.....
