LunarSovereignty.com — Concept Note

This document outlines the strategic positioning of LunarSovereignty.com as a descriptive, neutral digital asset for future debates on lunar sovereignty, safety zones and cooperative governance. It is not a policy document, not a legal opinion and not a commitment to launch any programme.

1. Purpose of this asset

LunarSovereignty.com is intended as a banner — a single, memorable phrase that can host:

• an observatory of lunar activities, risks and governance debates,
• a multilateral or multi-stakeholder platform on safety zones and coexistence,
• academic and legal work on the evolution of lunar law and practices,
• communication around lunar governance initiatives that must remain neutral and open.

The core idea is to provide a semantically obvious home for “lunar sovereignty” discussions, without turning the site into a mission brand, a commercial offering or an instrument for territorial claims.

2. Strategic context (2025–2035)

Over the next decade, several dynamics are likely to intensify:

• Increased lunar missions (public and private), with more landers, rovers, infrastructure tests and long-term presence objectives.
• Concentration of capabilities in a small number of space powers and industrial ecosystems.
• Emerging safety zone practices and norms under the Outer Space Treaty, the Artemis Accords and potential other frameworks.
• Concerns from non-space-faring countries about equitable access, resource stewardship and long-term governance of the Moon.

In that setting, a banner such as LunarSovereignty.com can serve as a neutral coordination surface: a place where different actors can document approaches, compare governance models and experiment with indices or taxonomies, without claiming ownership of the Moon.

3. Target buyers & positioning

The most coherent acquirers are institutions that need a durable, non-commercial and non-nationally branded label:

• international organisations or consortia dealing with outer space governance,
• coalitions of space agencies, ministries or regulators,
• universities and research centres specialising in space law and governance,
• foundations or NGOs building long-term programmes on space ethics and access.

The positioning should remain:

• descriptive (language asset, not trademark-like behaviour),
• non-exclusive in substance (open to diverse missions and countries),
• explicitly compliant with international law, emphasising that no territorial rights or ownership claims are implied.

4. Illustrative use-cases (within red lines)

4.1 Acceptable directions

• Public “Lunar Sovereignty Observatory” tracking missions, safety practices and governance proposals.
• Knowledge hub aggregating academic work, legal analyses and comparative country positions.
• Lunar Sovereignty Index or dashboards describing how different actors address coordination, risk and ethics.
• Conference or coalition banner emphasising functional coexistence rather than territorial carve-up.

4.2 Red lines

• No sales or promises of plots, concessions or ownership titles on the Moon or any celestial body.
• No presentation of the site as an official registry, court, authority or UN-like body unless and until such status is clearly granted by the relevant institutions.
• No marketing implying engineering, navigation, mining or defence services if the acquirer’s activities are purely governance-focused.

5. Legal & safety framing

Any future use of LunarSovereignty.com must remain aligned with:

• the Outer Space Treaty (1967) and subsequent UN space treaties,
• the Artemis Accords and other relevant multilateral arrangements, where applicable,
• general principles of non-appropriation, peaceful use and benefit of all humankind.

The domain name itself:

• does not confer any territorial rights or property titles,
• does not create an international legal personality,
• is a pure naming and communication asset that must be embedded in robust, externally validated governance frameworks.

6. Transaction & communications

A typical transaction would follow an institutional flow:

• NDA and preliminary discussions on intended use and governance safeguards,
• formal offer and agreement on price and transfer conditions,
• escrow process and technical transfer of the LunarSovereignty.com domain.

Only the domain name is transferred. No programmes, datasets, missions, IP, staff or advisory services are part of the asset by default.
