This guy does. My sister bought some property off of him for me for my birthday. Yes, I own lunar property. Booyah!

I smell a future war.

I own the moon! ^_^

Yep. I do because I say I do. ^_^

I want to own the sun then. I'll make the best roasted marshmallows ever. :o

i think it should be Japan...
it's is so awesome, but they have such a small country!! they deserve to own the moon!! :twisted:

I think Canada should.

That's an interesting question. XD I've never thought of that before. But...who would want the moon? I mean, if there aren't any resources we can use there, it can't be inhabited, and there's nothing much more we can learn from it (I think?), what would be the point in claiming ownership? ^^;

EDIT: Nissa! That article is amazing!!! I'm especially interested in the lunar colonization they're talking about. WOW. ^^ I'm so terrified of not being able to breathe, though. It's a paranoia of mine. So I'd be too scared that something like oxygen systems would fail and stuff, so I'd be afraid to go into space, let alone live on the moon! But thanks for the truly awesome article.

i think nobody should own it! we're already destroying the earth and that's enough. and if a country was to own it, it should NOT be the US, because they are one of those nations who care least about the environment and treat it very disrespectfully >.<

DieTotgeburtDesZeus is right. Nobody should own it, for real. If we damage it, the sea would be in chaos since the Moon controls the sea.

No one should own it. I agree with Die's reasons plus imagine the wars that would start because of it.

I don't believe the moon should belong to any country, as it's not even on Earth. None of the countries would take good care of it, and it would simply be a clone of Earth. -_- And we all know how we're doing down here. So, I say just leave the moon and any other planets alone. It's not ours, so we shouldn't touch it.

I would guess America since they landed there first but then if we are talking about living there I guess it would be whoever made a settlement there first.

Um..nobody should own the moon, it belongs to everyone, duh.

The moon should be it's own country :0

I don't really think anyone should own the moon but if one country had to, I would want Scotland to own it.:]

I dew

What would they do if they owned the moon xD

RUSSIA. Cause we own.
Isn't is like asking though who would own Earth?

was it russia or america who was there first?

i thought Russia was there first...
wait no
nvm
er
America i guess

No one should own the moon, but if there was ever a race for it im sure the US would shove their way in.

waterbenders aside

really, in all actuality no one can own the moon it's like the earth, does anybody really own it? no
gosh we humans,
goodness we think we own everything!
I really hope no one tries to colonize on the moon
because the moon controls the pull of the tide on the ocean and if we screw it up by being the pollutionary slobs that we are, we could cause major damamge to the earth fer serious.
ps:
real owner of moon---->

I think someone should wrap it up with a silver bow and give it to me! *laughs*

In all seriousness, I don't think it would be right for just one country to own the moon. If anyone was going to own it, it should be a commonwealth. I am not real sure we should try to ever colonize Mars either. Ethically I am not sure we have the right to do that.

I dont't like the idea of looking at a country up in the sky. x_x

The moon is the moon, and I'm glad that it is. If anyone's ever gonna claim it.. psh. I'll just never condider it anyone's -_-
Hopefully they won't paint their country's flag on the surface O_o

But if the moon WOULD be a country, it would be China's. I don't know why lol.
