How did it become my property, most likely I had to buy it from them.\n\n/doc

Yes, but the "fair"ness depends on the situation.  If they're taking your land to give to private developers, the private developers obviously couldn't afford to pay the ACTUAL price that land owners would have charge them for it.  So, unethical governments will use imminent domain to steal the land, then they will have the private developers put stores on it that will cause the price of the land to skyrocket.

that's cute.\nyou could submit that to reader's digest for their "life in these United States" seciton and if they use it they will pay a few hundred bucks ( at least that's what the fee was last i looked)!

Having their own moon might affect it...

"...was nasa lying about neil armstrong going to the moon?..."\n\nNo, definitely not. It's unbelievable how many people prefer to accept the half-baked, erroneous "proofs" that show men never landed on the moon to the undeniable scientific facts that prove we did. Take the time to read the facts on this non-governmental website ==> http://www.badastronomy.com/bad/tv/foxapollo.html\n\n"...the technology is much greater today than 1965, so why cant we go up there again?..."\n\nYes, our technology has greatly advanced since 1969, but at this time we simply don't have the necessary hardware to put men back on the moon---no Saturn-like boosters, no life-support systems required for manned lunar voyages, no lunar landing equipment, etc.,. It's true that we could build all the necessary equipment, but a number of factors discourage further manned lunar exploration--the space race is over, the American public has lost interest in the moon, and NASA's budget is far below the levels needed to ramp up again for manned lunar flights.

We already brought back moon rocks.  Technically that's part of the moon so I'd say yes, it's possible.

Yes. President Bush recently announced the intent for NASA to land on the moon. If you listen to recent podcasts or read the stories from Science @ NASA (see the source below), you will find what goes into their planning to return to the moon.\n\nThose of you who wonder if it's a waste of time: the more we know about the moon, the more we know about Earth. The more we know about our planet, the easier it is to make life better.

Can your father authenticate the purchase?  I would be very surprised if any astronaut would smuggle back rocks, or deal on the black market.  These people live for their careers - they would never jeopardise that for a few bucks.  I once saw the moon rock display at Houston and believe me it was more secure than Fort Knox.  I don't think any astronaut would have the opportunity to smuggle bulky stuff like that, even if they wanted to, which I don't believe they did.

Well... Let's see...\n\nWe know nothing is there, and we brought back 842 pounds of Moon rocks. Ain't that enough?\n\nBesides, why should we do it, if no other country is doing it?

Actually, I think it would be more appropriate for us to send all the moon landing conspiracy theorists on an all-expenses, one-way trip to the heart of the Sun.\n\nIt would surely raise the average IQ of the planet to get rid of some of those nitwits.

yes i beleive you can but you have to pay and get permits and such.. google it and i'm sure you'll find a plethora of helpfull info. on it.

all materials I know can be charged BUT they must be insulated from earthing.\n\nGlass rubbed with silk is one of the more curious ones I remember from school.

I thought I read once that there is some sort of laws to stop the private sector from going up there, the moon that is. Same basic protection laws that govern Antartica. Permits and approval required....

Yeah, I was born just in time to see the last apollo mission fly there.\n\nWill they go back? I sure hope so.  Just because there's no oil doesn't mean it's a worthless rock.  That worthless rock can be built into electronics, and solar panels.  A band of bottom line quality solar panels of a kilometer in width made to span the equator of the moon would put out a third of the energy needs for the world today.  There's a lot of lunar surface out there, and microwave relay stations can send that power anywhere you want.\n\nThere's also the whole helium three thing, but I dunno if that's really going to work or not.\n\nAnd of course, there's space tourism.  The old folks are sure to love spending some time on the moon, what with the romance of a full earth in view, and one sixth gravity to help them get around (and get it on!)\n\nPlus, the earth is so close, that you could use remote controlled robots operated by people on earth to do the construction work, so lunar colonies could make for more jobs down here.
