Lawsuits from Another World: Three Men Sue NASA for “Trespassing“ on Mars In a bizarre legal twist, NASA found itself facing an unusual lawsuit when three men claimed the space agency was trespassing on Mars. The case, filed in 2019, raised eyebrows around the world. The trio argued that they had established ownership of the red planet through a self-declared “Homestead Act of 2015.“ However, legal experts swiftly dismissed the lawsuit, highlighting that international space treaties, including the Outer Space Treaty of 1967, prohibit any nation or individual from claiming ownership of celestial bodies. These treaties uphold the principle that space exploration should be conducted for the benefit of all humankind. While the lawsuit was ultimately dismissed, it highlighted the complexities of space law and the challenges that may arise as humanity ventures further into the cosmos. For now, Mars remains a realm of exploration, not ownership. #mars #space #nasa #spa
