Of course, talking about these is too far, so let’s talk about reality, or the facts that already exist.

Even the cosmic meteorites that have landed on Earth are of very high value. Some iron meteorites, for example, are even more valuable, and some that are in good condition can be sold for sky-high prices.

This is precisely because the value of these meteorites is very high, so a new profession has emerged called star seeker, also called meteor seeker. The latter is too popular, so people in this industry generally regard themselves as the former.

In fact, to put it bluntly, they are people who are looking for stars, but these stars are not in the sky, but fall to the ground. Some people believe that these meteorites are stars in the sky, at least they once were, but they just fell to the ground.

Therefore, many of these star finders travel to various desert and Gobi areas, or ice fields, Antarctica and other inaccessible areas. Because these areas are inaccessible and have relatively little human activity, there will be a lot of meteorite fragments.

As for Antarctica, it is the paradise of these star finders, as well as astronomers and astronomers. Because there are so many meteorite fragments in Antarctica, a large number of people go to Antarctica every year to search for these meteorite fragments.

Whenever a large-scale meteorite rain occurs in that part of the world, or a large meteorite falls, you can see that many people rush to this place from all over the world. Their purpose is very simple, which is to follow these crashes. Fallen meteorite fragments went.

The same is true in our country. There have been several famous meteorite crashes in China, and many people have rushed to look for them. However, the definition of meteorites is still very vague. It is also said that meteorites are national resources and should be owned by the country. Ordinary people must turn them over to the country when they find them.

It is also said that meteorites do not belong to the resources included in the mineral catalog stipulated by the state, and can be used without prohibition by law. Then it can be said that meteorites should belong to individuals.

But no matter what, its value is getting higher and higher. Some good meteorites are said to be sold for tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of yuan, etc.

The overseas market is even more popular, and there are many meteorites selling for sky-high prices.

And these are all ordinary meteorites such as small meteorites, stone meteorites, iron meteorites, etc. that fell to the earth. If it is such a gold meteorite core, just imagine how valuable it would be if it were transported back to Earth.

Even if it doesn't reach the valuation of this professional organization, it probably won't be much different. It can even be said that the valuation of this professional institution is already conservative and too low, and it may be able to sell for a higher price.

Of course, there will be a problem now, which is also what everyone is concerned about, and that is the ownership of this golden meteorite core and how to deal with it.

According to relevant world space treaties, the moon and its natural resources are the common property of all mankind. That is to say, the moon belongs to all mankind. According to this treaty, this golden meteorite core also falls within the scope of this treaty, which means that this golden meteorite core should also be owned by the whole world.

However, there is also another question here: is this golden meteorite core really a lunar resource? Just as there is currently controversy in China over the identification of meteorites as natural resources, there is also controversy over whether meteorites on the moon are lunar resources. ….

In addition, although relevant space treaties stipulate that the moon and its natural resources are the common property of all mankind, there is an inherent problem with the collective ownership of such celestial bodies.

Everyone has it, but not everyone actually has it. In economic terms, it is the "tragedy of the commons" problem.

It talks about the fact that there is a public resource (such as the ocean, the polar regions, and the atmosphere) that cannot be excluded from the use of other people. Since the total amount of its resources is limited, the abuse of some people or all people will cause losses to the use of other people or all people.

Take Antarctica, which is clearly stipulated by international treaties as belonging to all mankind, as an example. It is an unclaimed land rich in minerals and holds 72% of the entire surface freshwater reserves. But despite this, seven countries including the United Kingdom, Australia, France, New Zealand, and Norway have successively claimed sovereignty over it.

In the 1940s, these seven countries decided on their own to divide 83% of the Antarctic continent based on the so-called "discovery theory", "possession theory" and "fan theory" proposed by each.

But with the outbreak of World War II, this kind of occupation and carve-up was forced to end. After the post-war world order was re-established, some countries began to turn their attention to Antarctica, and related competition began to become fierce.

For this reason, in the 1960s, 12 countries including Argentina and Chile, which are closest to Antarctica, signed the "Antarctic Treaty", stipulating that Antarctica can only be used for peaceful purposes.

However, such treaties also have limitations of the times. The Antarctic Treaty only temporarily freezes the territorial sovereignty claims of various countries, and the rights attached to the territory, such as the continental shelf, are not defined.

This also means that the fight for Antarctica has never stopped.

Of course, due to the world structure and the competition among various countries, Antarctica maintains its current situation, that is, no country has occupied Antarctica.

But in fact, the competition for Antarctica by various countries has never stopped. The Antarctic region contains mysterious earth information and rich resource deposits, which is of great scientific and political and economic significance to every country.

For example, there are four points of contention in the Antarctic region: the pole, the freezing point, the magnetic point and the highest point. The first three points are already occupied by the United States, France and the former Soviet Union.

The moon is also a "commons" like Antarctica. However, international treaties only stipulate that this land belongs to the whole world. However, as a text of international law, it can only stipulate some general principles and cannot be exhaustive.

For example, the treaty stipulates that "all contracting states shall enjoy the freedom to conduct scientific research on the moon without discrimination of any kind, on the basis of equality and in accordance with the provisions of international law."

However, there is a big difference between extracting 1 gram of helium 3 for scientific research and collecting 1 ton of helium 3 for controlled nuclear fusion "research".

This is like the Japanese country, which goes to the Antarctic waters to capture whales every year in the name of scientific research. It was said that they were conducting scientific research, but in fact, all the whales captured in the name of science were slaughtered and became food on the tables of the Japanese people.

This is also the most controversial thing in the field of environmental protection in the world~www.readwn.com~ Although various countries and environmentalists have protested for so many years, Japan still goes its own way, and there is nothing others can do about it.

For another example, "Each state party can establish stations on the moon with or without personnel." However, these resources on the moon are also limited. Some places are rich in resources and have excellent terrain, suitable for development and habitation. For example, some places have relatively high helium-3 reserves and relatively abundant water resources. The dimensions of some places are more suitable for the landing and take-off of spacecraft.

So how should these places be divided? Obviously it cannot be shared by everyone. The world has never been so friendly and united.

So who has the right to come first and occupy it? Should we still rely on strength to speak for ourselves? This is also a question.

All issues concerning the ownership of this golden meteorite core are very complicated, not only among ordinary people, but also among some professional institutions, experts, professors, and even some countries.

Several small countries have even issued statements, saying that this golden meteorite core should be owned by the whole world, and Haoyu Technology cannot monopolize it and must contribute it, etc.
