Moon Ownership

Although there may be many international agreements in place - when it comes to it, colonisation will be decided on the Moon, to forestall this a system of ownership is proposed to encourage Commercial flights to the Moon.

 

The First country or Organisation to stay on the Moon for more than 1 year will be assigned a non contiguous surface areas totaling 7% of the Moon and each country and company involved in space development will receive an equivalent to their part of the total world investment in manned space flight of a total of 0.7% of the Moon.

The second will receive 4%, the Third 2.5% the Forth 1.5% and the Fifth 1%. After 10 years if still on the Moon they will receive a further 1/3 of their original share, after 20 years a further 1/5 and on this scale, until ownership is complete. At any time the owners can sell their ownership, but any one country or organisation can not own more than 1/6th of the Moon and cannot own more that 1/6th of each a designated polar region.

It is proposed that certain areas that specifically identify and are the heart of the Moon should come under a non-ownership or free state.

 

A very detailed form of this proposal is being set out and the forum for its perfection will be from the view of EarthLevel.
