Overview: A Quick Walk Through

File a claim to land on Mars and join our "Factual Possession" of Mars

What’s All This?

Do Something Amazing For Your Family Descendants:

1 So, would you like to own a huge piece of Planet Mars AND save the "Outer Space Treaty?" .. Of course you do! The Outer Space Treaty is the ONLY law that prevents aggressive weaponization of orbital space around Earth, but it is becoming marginalized because its not great for new space business. It NEEDS a 'top-up treaty' before it gets dropped or ignored. Already, several countries are planning for 'peaceful weapons in space.' If that happens it's a slippery slope towards NUKES parked just 350km above us: *CLICK WHY?*

2 The UN needs a JOLT to build new law upon the treaty, making it work for space commerce (mining etc.), debris management, more protective of peace, and preserving of opportunity for future space faring nations. So for 12+ years we have evidenced our space activity to mount a legitimate claim of 'early' factual possession of Mars. Expert lawyers state that it is valid. The propagation of our unique claim provides 3 opportunities to deliver a new 'Top-Up Treaty' - as well as a huge benefit to our members. See how: *CLICK LEGAL*

3 For 12+ years we have been reported in *WORLD MEDIA* for applying persistent high-powered LASERS to Mars (providing a very small geo-atmospheric benefit for future terraforming of Mars). We have developed strong governance plans and claim communal 'pan-multinational' possession of Mars. This is legitimate and might jolt the UN into action. As future law evolves to tolerate property rights in space, our claim will be first-in-line. Expert legal opinion agrees with this. Find out more on our legal strategy: *CLICK LEGAL*

  • Join The Martians:

    Join our validated claim of ‘early’ factual possession of land on Mars. Independent legal experts state that our actions are legal and our factual possession is arguably real. Within the law as it stands now, we cannot convert that factual possession into property. Our legal advice confirms that if/when the law evolves to tolerate property rights to celestial land, our claim should be first-in-line. This could be in 50-100 years time. Our family descendants will be ready. The aim is to register legal title for “All Mankind” (held in trust by UN) and all co-claimants get the beneficial ownership title. A business friendly space-user group will manage responsible land exploitation and a new top-up Space Treaty will be ratified to keep us all safe from aggressive space weaponization. See our legal strategy: *CLICK LEGAL*

1. Claim

You simply file your claim for Mars here on our website. Depending how much of an Early Bird you are, you may get the land claim for FREE or a small fee: $18 can buy a claim for 35 Sq Km (>8500 acres!!) You get 3 Claim Certificates & a Declaration of Intent - confirming your joining of our communal claim of possession of Mars and declaring our intent to relentlessly pursue opportunity to register legal land title of Mars to All Mankind (UN to hold in trust) with beneficial ownership title going to all our co-claimants. For expert legal opinion: "Click Legal"

2. Process

We submit "First Registration" documents plus "Statements of truth" to the UN. This includes names of all claimants to date. We bring media influence to bear, and lobby individual state delegations @ COPUOS (UN). The UN recognises the beneficial construct of our proposal. We know that when the law evolves to tolerate such celestial property rights, our claim should be first-in-line (legal experts confirm this). In meantime we enhance our claim of possession by building a huge membership: now 200,000+ but aim for 5 Million. See "Click Legal"

3. Lasering

We have been sending strong laser beams to Mars on a frequent basis for 12+ years. We use laser linked software to send optical Morse Code messages (claims to Mars' land) to Mars and beyond. With lasers aligned & fixed to a telescope, we shower Mars with up to 10 Quadrillion photons per second! We've done the math. This will have a tiny but favorable, controlling influence (via CO2 release) on Mars geo-atmosphere and potential primitive life on Mars. See "Science Page"

4. Registration

Independent expert legal opinion confirms our claim of 'early' possession of land on Mars is valid. It also confirms that if/when the law evolves to tolerate such celestial property rights, our claim should be first in line (but not guaranteed to win). If successful, The UN will draft the Trust Deeds, but in this circumstance, all claimants (more likely their family descendants) will end up with either $$$$ payment (from UN itself) or actual land on Mars.

  • Factual Possession

    Within current space law, experts have ‘validated’ our claim of ‘early’ factual possession of land on Mars … CLICK: legal check

  • Certified Possession

    When you join us, we issue a downloadable certificate bundle which confirms you have joined our communal factual possession of all land on Mars. Please look after this certificate … your family descendants will love and remember you for it!.. CLICK: what do I get?

  • UK & International Courts

    We aim to use this claim to JOLT the membership of COPUOS (UN Committee for Peaceful Uses of Outer Space). We’ve even tried to compel the UK Gov to present our claim to COPUOS, first in UK Courts and then at the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR).

  • Claim is Faithful to OST

    Our communal claim is faithful to the text and ethos of the Outer Space Treaty (OST 1967). It provides elegant solutions to the most difficult problems facing humanity’s quest into space. To succeed, It does require a change in the interpretation of OST … CLICK: legal reality check

  • Loads of Lobbying

    We will endeavour to effectively lobby each state delegation to COPUOS … to convince them of the merits in our full proposal. Such lobbying is also linked to our campaign for a new ‘top-up’ Space Treaty. We might even achieve this, years before the Mars claim delivers.

  • There will be Waiting

    People from every nation are joining us in a unique pan-multinational communal claim of possession of Mars. Expert independent legal analysis has agreed that our factual possession is valid…. but within current law, it cannot yet be converted into owned property.

  • Always Be Ready

    One way or another, future space law will come to tolerate property rights to celestial land. When such opportunity arises, we (or more likely our family decendants in 150 years time) should be first-in-line for consideration (expert legal opinion agrees) … CLICK: legal reality check

  • Engage Your Family

    If you join us, it is your family descendants that are most likely to do well. You may be remembered forever as the family hero who provided their opportunity to own a huge area of Mars (9-35 Sq Km!). The certificates can be transferred down the family line and will remain valid.

  • Strengthen The Claim

    The claim gets stronger as the membership grows. We aim for over 5 million co-claimants. In future we will fund space-studies scholarships and bursaries for worthy applicants from within our members’ families … we will assist in training our future astronauts & space engineers. Click: Revised Strategy (2021)

  • The Big Win!

    If the claim is realised to the fullest, all co-claimants (or their descendants) will get beneficial title to land on Mars (‘UN’ will hold legal title); there will be a new top-up Space Treaty (to keep us safe) and space commerce will be vibrant . See the possibilities … CLICK: what do I get?

UPDATE Autumn 2022. The Current Situation: we have a provisional legal foothold on Mars!
Despite an enduring pandemic, we are ahead of schedule! We’ve had decent national and international media coverage 2020-2021 and have come through the UK High Courts with good credibility. We did try to compel the UK Government to present the ‘problem’ of our communal claim to COPUOS (the UN). We endured the UK High Courts and EC of Human Rights (we have paid all costs – no cost to taxpayer). Of course, we could not compel our national Government to our bidding, but we have gained much credibility through this transparent process. We have had lots of good legal advice, and then from December 2020 until May 2021 we engaged/commissioned Professor Frans von der Dunk (Director, International Institute of Space Law) to provide two consecutive legal analyses of our claim, culminating in his excellent Legal Reality Check. We are very pleased with the result. Essentially, our activities are legal, our claim of ‘early’ factual possession of land on Mars is valid … and if the law evolves to tolerate/encourage property rights to celestial land (it WILL, in future years), then our claim should be first in line for consideration. But, that still doesn’t guarantee that we all gain ownership … the claim will almost certainly need to get stronger over the next 20+ years. We have fantastic plans to deliver this, and thus realize a convincing and fully established claim of factual possession. It would be legally difficult to refuse such a claim. So, we needed further expert legal critique and advice on all this … we asked Dr Philip De Man (Rapporteur: International Law Association Space Law Committee) to produce a report. It is a fantastic report. It is certainly critical, but does serve to confirm the start to our claim of possession. He states that more needs to be done (we agree) to unequivocally establish factual possession … our existing acts of possession since 2010 (12+ years) could provide a provisional inchoate title (if law were to become favorable, our claim would be ‘engaged’ but needing strengthening/completion within a ‘reasonable time period.’ This report reinforces our opinion and has further moulded our exciting strategy for further development. We also engaged with a number of world-renowned PhD astrophysicists – to gain their analysis of our laser activities. We commissioned The highly prominent American astrophysics professor, Dr Paul Sutter, to produce a scientific report on the laser targeting of Mars. He confirmed that our scientific assumptions were tolerable and that our claimed number of impacting photons was approximately correct. He also agreed that the effect of 300 photons per square meter per second (impacting Mars) would be extremely small. His report thus agrees with our existing predictions. See our SCIENCE page for his comments/analysis. SEE our LEGAL page for links to the independent legal reports. These reports (together with a very helpful/encouraging email message/assessment from Professor PJ. Blount) will now herald a new “commercial phase” in this project (to date, most of our members have joined cost-free). See our “CLAIM MARS LAND” page. We do suggest you go to our NEWS section for latest information … it will probably surprise, and maybe excite you!

“You might have the best and most substantiated claim for de facto possession, making you first in line if and when it would become possible to take the next step to de jure possession = ownership …”
