Working ON THE MOOOOOOOON!

That "owning parts of the moon" thing is a complete scam :/ What happened is that countries basically got together and agreed that none could lay claim to the moon, but that didn't apply to corporations, which is a pretty big loophole considering that corporations pretty much own the world now anyway. So some guy noticed this, and decided that he "owned the moon", then promptly sold it to a company who is now selling plots of it at about £10 an acre (about $18) for future development. And people are buying these?

 

But it would be cool if Google had a server there... a new one, that is. *conpirational glance* *logs off quickly*

Although you can "legally" buy a plot on the moon, it's only legally yours in that it's not illegal for you to claim you own it.

 

Also international treaty (iirc) prevents the "owner" from mining it, building on it, or basically doing anything you might want to do on the moon.
