An Acre of Mars
As the saying goes “Women are from Venus, Men are from Mars†- so here’s a plot of land on the red planet - for the red hot blooded man in your life! Here’s the technical bit : The Outer Space Treaty of 1967 forbids any government from claiming a planet like Mars, but didn’t mention whether private individuals can claim some for themselves. So back in 1980, an American called Dennis Hope filed his claim to Mars with the Russian and American governments... and neither superpowers have contested it since. He’s sold tens of thousands of plots since, and now you can own one!You will receive, in a space age red and silver pocket:Acre of Mars Deed – your registration document for one acre of Mars. The certificate is delivered blank, so either you or the recipient can fill in their name.Acre of Mars Map – which pinpoints exactly where your acre is located.The Martian Constitution and Bill of Rights - details the Martian Laws and the purchasers rights.A transcript of the Declaration of Ownership, filed with the Russian and US governments.A document confirming your Mineral Rights to your land on Mars.A postage paid land registration card – to register your name as the owner of this extra terrestrial land!
