I thought the Outer Space Treaty was meant to prevent things like these. Personally, I hope we'll leave behind all of our arbitrary notions of states once we leave earth. It's too late to remove the dividing lines on earth, but we still have a shot at idealism in space.
- richmarr 11y agoInteresting idea. It's too late to remove the dividing lines on earth Too late implies it was possible before but isn't now. Why's that?
- Symmetry 11y agoThe Outer Space Treaty prevents people/governments from owning land outside of Earth but it gives organizations the right to keep others out of places they are currently using, which comes to much the same thing. Now, the Moon Treaty does what you want but that was never ratified by anybody with a serious space program.
