Legal Disclosures

Mars Land Authority operates on a well-established legal framework. The 1967 Outer Space Treaty prohibits national sovereignty claims by States Parties — not by private individuals or corporations. This is the same legal gap that has enabled Dennis Hope's Lunar Embassy to sell $12 million in lunar deeds to over three million people, including former U.S. presidents, over 45 years without a single legal challenge. The U.S. Commercial Space Launch Competitiveness Act of 2015 (SPACE Act) explicitly grants American citizens rights to engage in the commercial exploration and exploitation of space resources. The Artemis Accords, signed by 40+ nations, affirm that private resource extraction in outer space does not constitute national appropriation. Luxembourg's Space Resources Law of 2017 was the first national legislation to explicitly recognize private space ownership rights.

WHAT YOUR CERTIFICATE IS: A Certificate of Registered Claim represents a registered entry in the Mars Land Authority private registry, identified by real NASA MOLA areographic coordinates. It is a commemorative and speculative document with collector, personal, and speculative investment value. It establishes your priority position in MLA's development rights framework. WHAT YOUR CERTIFICATE IS NOT: A Certificate is not a deed, title, or conveyance of legal ownership of any portion of Mars. It does not confer governmental recognition or territorial sovereignty. It is not a financial instrument, security, or investment contract as defined under applicable securities laws. It does not guarantee any financial return. ALL SALES ARE FINAL AND NON-REFUNDABLE.

OUTER SPACE TREATY (1967) Article II: "Outer space, including the Moon and other celestial bodies, is not subject to national appropriation by claim of sovereignty, by means of use or occupation, or by any other means." Note: applies to States Parties — not private entities. MOON AGREEMENT (1979) Declares celestial bodies "common heritage of mankind." NOT ratified by the United States, Russia, China, or any major spacefaring nation. Has no binding legal effect on U.S. citizens. U.S. SPACE ACT (2015) Section 51303: "A United States citizen engaged in commercial recovery of an asteroid resource or a space resource under this chapter shall be entitled to any asteroid resource or space resource obtained, including to possess, own, transport, use, and sell the asteroid resource or space resource." ARTEMIS ACCORDS (2020–PRESENT) Signed by 40+ nations. Affirms that extraction of space resources does not constitute national appropriation under the Outer Space Treaty. LUXEMBOURG SPACE RESOURCES LAW (2017) First national legislation granting private entities the right to own and exploit space resources. Recognized by ESA.
