      From: eaglesondouglas@gmail.com              It would be a case of multinational cooperation to stake out geographic       interest areas. Like an Antarctic areas. I could envision a case of telescope       siting in a certain crater.              Another claim would be a certain orbit. Maybe a case of defending a satellite       from space debris.              I will always promote the high L orbits. One is a parking orbit over the far       side high noon. This is where the orbit is always at high noon. It is as       unique an orbit as valuable as the Earth's synchronous orbits. The first       occupant rules entrance to the        orbit. And sets the rules.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
