Real estate prices are over the moon these days and if you are house hunting there isn’t a decent deal available on earth. So isn’t it better to have a piece of land on moon.
The commute would may be a drag but there’s plenty of space on the moon and the view is to die for. A whole acre costs a measly Rs 1,000. No wonder, even Indians have put down a deposit. Scientists know it is rich in minerals and believe it might have frozen water. This is why NASA’s planning a lunar post by 2020.
“International treaties forbid private or sovereign ownership of extraterrestrial real estate,” says space lawyer Ranjana Kaul.
Plots have already started been named – The Sea of Tranquility, Mount Agnes, the Alpes Valley.
