Thanks Joe Yes, this is the point that my studies of Space Law are leading to. Every once in a while I give talks about these aspects about Space Law and when I discuss this lack of property rights it always provokes a strong reaction from people who are interested in the commercial development of space! The lack of property rights for territory or land is clear; the more ambiguous and difficult subject relates to rights in anything you produce from lunar soil or material from asteroids (for example).
I'm currently looking at the law relating to Antarctica and the deep seabed as these are in my view similar from a legal perspective to space. Fascinating subjects!
