 The Lunar Republic
In The News
The Lunar Republic has drawn the attention of
everyday people, major international corporations and the media in
the brief time since it came into existence. From all corners of
the world, newspapers, radio, television and the Internet have
helped spread the word about the exciting and innovative concept
behind the forming of the new republic that will help build the
future of Earth's nearest neighbor.
With coverage from Japan's popular "TokiOne"
news program on J-Wave Radio (81.3 FM), as well as articles in the
Italian, Czech, Spanish, Brazilian and Polish press, the Lunar Republic
is quickly sparking the imagination of people from around the
world.
Here's a look at just a few of our recent press
clippings:
 The
Houston Chronicle, August 28, 2001: "In 1969, two
astronauts from the United States landed their lunar module on the
moon. A 1967 United Nations space treaty and the subsequent 1974
revision, which didn't get approval by the required number of
member states, established that no nation, individual or corporate
entity from a signing nation could lay claim to any celestial
body, including the moon. Fast forward to 1998, when a proposal
was made to create an independent and sovereign republic that
would control the destiny of the orb, its resources and its future
as an autonomous and self-supporting entity. Welcome to the Lunar
Republic ... where all of the pieces are in place for you to
become a citizen, elect a government and get information on
colonization and property rights."
 USA
Today, Hot Site of the Day, August 17, 2001: "...Guess
what? If you ever hope to become a property owner on the Moon and
reap the potential benefits of lunar colonization, you first must
become a citizen. (Dual citizenship is permissible.)"
