Gambo Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 It is reported in the press today that Premier Inns have purchased 40,000 sq ft on the moon for ?1m with the view to build a 'hotel' in the future. Ignoring the idea of building a hotel on the moon for a minute..............i want to know who they paid the ?1m to. Who owns the moon to be able to sell part of it?

The Brow Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Seriously? Folk give this numptie money for what is essentially nothing (in so far as if I turn up on the moon tomorrow and build a house on "his land" theres feck all he can do about it). Anyone up for undercutting the eejit? We can start our lunar property business this weekend. Fair play to him, wish i'd got there first! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toggie88 Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Anyone what to club together and buy a chunk of land. We could be the first football team to have a space supporters club, as well as a new pre-season training ground. Seriously though, it says that he owns some planets and their moons as well. By the sound of this, he doesn't own all the planets. What's stopping someone else (i.e us) claiming ownership and then make a mint off them?

wibble Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Everyone knows that the Clangers own the moon, and the Soup Dragon will kick the ass of anyone who rocks up to build a hotel. These people have made a BIG mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshallschunkychicken Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 I remember studying this in Space Law in fourth year (spot the guy who didn't take his law degree seriously). The loophole in the Outer Space Treaty 1967 was essentially that 'no state can own the moon or any other celestial bodies'. This boy came along and went "I'm not a state, I'm a bloke. I claim the moon." Since then he's sold plots of land on the moon for his own personal gain, with no-one essentially knowing if they have a legal claim or not. Genius.

dodethejambo Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 What are Preimer Inns going to do if the landing site is at the other side of the moon, will they get taxis to transport you the hotel??
