1. NASA administrator Bill Nelson believes China is undertaking a military space program in a bid to gain total control of the moon, not allowing anyone else access to it.
As Reuters reports, the comments were made by Nelson during an interview with German newspaper Bild. Nelson said, "We must be very concerned that China is landing on the moon and saying: It's ours now and you stay out."
Nelson went on to state that "China's space program is a military space program," and that the Chinese space station is being used to learn, "how to destroy other people's satellites." He points to the south pole of the moon as being "hotly contested" due to potential water deposits allowing for rocket fuel to be produced....

2. If you ask Dennis Hope, he'll tell you he's the richest man on Earth—in fact, he'll say he's the richest man in the Solar System. Why? Because, as far as he's concerned, he owns most of it.
In the early 1980s, Hope, then unemployed for about a year, thought he'd be a good property owner and could make a living by managing real estate. He looked out the window and saw more unclaimed property than he could possibly fathom—the moon. He remembered a tidbit from a political science course he took in college—the 1967 United Nations Outer Space Treaty said no country could own the moon, but it says nothing about individuals.
Hope wrote a letter to the United Nations saying the moon was his and asked the group to come up with a legal reason why an individual could not claim ownership of the moon.
He never heard back.
"I sent the United Nations a declaration of ownership detailing my intent to subdivide and sell the moon and have never heard back," he says. "There is a loophole in the treaty—it does not apply to individuals."
Since then, he's sold more than 611 million acres of land on the moon. Individual, one-acre lots sell for $19.95 ($36.50 after a "lunar tax" and shipping and handling of the deed) and there are discounts for larger plots. He once sold a "country-sized" plot of land—2.66 million acres—for $250,000. He's sold plots on the moon to three former presidents (George H.W. Bush, Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan). He's president of the Galactic Government, a democratic republic that represents landowners on the moon and some of his other properties (he claimed Mercury, Mars, Venus, Jupiter's moon Io, and Pluto while he was at it). Customers can buy the entirety of Pluto for $250,000....

3. Perhaps the NASA administrator is so busy staring at the sky through his telescope all this while that he is ignorant of the fact that an extraterrestrial real estate company has sold more than 611 million acres of land on the moon for more than 30 years.
Don't worry, Mr Bill Nelson, the owner of the extraterrestrial real estate company is not a Chinese but an American. And the good news to all Americans is that he had sold plots on the moon to three former presidents (George H.W. Bush, Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan).
Now the US is accusing China of undertaking a military program in a bid to gain total control of the moon. It won't be surprising that sometime in the future it will also accuse China of trying to gain total control of both Heaven and Hell!
