An Acre of Mars ! |
|
The excitement of Mars being so close to earth, inspired some enterprising entrepreneurs to sell
acres of it. |
want to buy an acre of planet Mars?
|
The offer went something like this...
For the price of £17.99 reduced from £19.99 you would become the proud owner of 1 acre of Mars
you would be given a deed of ownership and a map to locate your site on Mars...
You would also get a transcript of the Declaration of Ownership which is a document filed with the USA and Russia along with the United Nations General
Assembly in 1980. And of course a document confirming all mineral rights.
The offer was aimed specifically for "the man in your life", no doubt with the view of finding him a plot
of land on his very own homeground :). But then who does really own Mars ? One of the mission statements
of NASA is : the purpose of exploring Mars is that it is the best planet for future human
exploration and colonisation. Perhaps I`d better get in on the land purchase :)..
