>>6317589>use PNT satellite and ground stations to identify the GOLD MOON CUBEYour Radiotelescope Operator glances at the coordinates and instantly tells you:
-That's Jawahar Point, named after the first Prime Minister Of India, Jawaharlal Nehru. It is the site of the Chandrayaan-1 Impactor Moon Probe from 14 Nov 2008. It is very close to Shackleton Crater. I guess it belongs to India?
>(Cry out in despair...) NOOOOOoo...! After all this effort, all this scientific research to colonise newfound worlds, my pristine moon territory has been reverse-colonised by INDIA??>(Using Slight Racism) Reply: India? Shouldn't they focus on building more toilets instead of spacecraft?>(Using Slightly More Racism) Reply: I accept India's claim on Shackleton Crater. After all, once we have created the lunar railway, I cannot wait to see those special videos of Indian visitor selfies taken in front of our moon trains uploaded onto 4chan>Reply: (reject India's claim) I don't think the exact position of the impactor was ever publicly declared confirmed or verified. What if I just tele-operate drive the robot to reposition the Gold Moon Cube / ISRO impactor probe down a few craters or valleys further away?>(Comply with US Artemis Accords) India is a signatory to the Artemis Accords. If we abide by them, and establish a Safe Zone of non-interference with advance notice of the purpose of our operations, they must reciprocate and also affirm that our extraction of space resources does not constitute a conflict with Article II of the UN Outer Space Treaty, ie a form of national appropriation. Just notify them of what we are doing, and we carry on our mission as before>(Reject Artemis Accords) There was already a Moon Treaty in existence back in 1979, but the US, Russia/Soviet Union and China never signed it. The Moon Treaty sought to safeguard space for scientific research for all of humanity, "The Common Heritage For All Mankind", whilst the Artemis Accords is just a sly way for the US to reject the scientific mission and commence their own commercialisation takeover of the Moon. Look at how they fired all the NASA scientists, and gave all the contracts to private space companies! All of these protocols are just yet more LAWFARE...>(Use lawfare yourself) The India impactor was a crash landing. That cannot be recognised internationally as a legitimate basis for a claim. Shackleton is ours!>I am a space pirate and I intend to do whatever I want. Turn your big radiotelescopes all you want and look, I am stealing your Golden Indian Moon Cube right now, in front of all your faces>(write-in...)
