Acre of Land On Moon

This cheese isn't the edible stuff, but a chunk of land on the moon. The novel Lunar Deeds will make for a fantastic present for family and friends of all ages. If you can't afford to get on the property ladder don't worry, because for a matter of pounds, you can buy a piece of land on another planet.

Due to a Law passed in American Congress, the Lunar Deed is the only authorised reseller of land on the lighted lunar surface, and a certificate of authenticity will prove to all of your friends that you do actually own something. It's out of this World!

Includes:

• Lunar Deed, which confirms your registration of the one acre of the moon and gives the co-ordinates of your plot.
• The Lunar Map so you can see where your property is located.
• A document, confirming you have Mineral Rights to your land.
• The Lunar Constitution and Bill of Rights, which details the Lunar laws and your rights.

• The Moon is a 4.6 billion year old ball of rock that circles around Earth once every 27 days, 7 hours and 43 minutes.
• The moon's diameter is about 2,160 mi (3,476 km), somewhat more than 1/4 the earth's diameter. The moon has about 1/81 the mass of the earth and is 3/5 as dense.
• On the Moon's surface the force of gravitation is about 1/6 that on earth.
• The surface temperature rises above 100?XC (212?XF) at lunar noon and sinks below -155?XC (-247?XF) at night.
• The plane of the Moon's orbit is tilted, or inclined, at an angle of about 5?X with respect to the ecliptic.
• There is no air on the Moon, but it has recently been announced that water is definitely present - according to NASA between 10 and 300 million tons of water-ice is scattered inside the craters of the lunar poles.
• There are dark areas on the Moon. These are really dry land but long ago astronomers thought they were filled with water, so they called them seas.
• In 1969, the first astronauts landed on the Moon. This trip was followed by five more missions, the last in 1972.

Q. If I want to buy a piece of land for my dad, do I have to enter his details in the ordering page on the website or is there somewhere else this is entered?
A. The deeds can be written by hand or they can be sent to MoonEstates for personalisation, either way is legal.

Q. Which of the planetary properties available has the most valuable known minerals on?
A. It is hard to say which of the planets is richest in minerals because only a tiny proportion of each body has been studied by our spacecraft and then only very near to the surface. We do know that many minerals are to be found on the Moon, including Gold and Platinum, but it impossible for us to say the quantities or location.
