    ... who owns it and who sets the laws?

    I've wondered about this since childhood.

    Rules of the thread:

    - Try to be objective.
    - Obviously, assume this is ages away and that it's now time to just begin considering mass migration.
    - Assume no one owned the moond before (specifically aliens).

    I'm uncomfortable saying, "that's no moon" when it actually IS the moon.

    You didn't read my rules....

    "- Obviously, assume this is ages away and that it's now time to just begin considering mass migration."


    No one's claimed it to avoid toe-stepping. But when it's time to go there, someone's got to set the rules. I foresee a messy messy problem triggered by the first person to claim a piece of the moon.

    I think it belongs to Turkey because of some weird treaty.

    So the answer is clear, whoever buys the majority of the moon off this site is majority owner of the moon.

    Edit - I meant to edit the above, not make a new post

    That's really nobody's business but the Turks.

    I would just stay out of it.
