Who Owns Mars? | Unveiled

VOICE OVER: Noah Baum
WRITTEN BY: Caitlin Johnson

Can anyone own a planet? Humanity has had its sights set on Mars for a long time... But what happens when we finally get to the Red Planet? We often talk of colonising the solar system for ourselves, but do we really have the right to do so? In this video, Unveiled unpicks the Outer Space Treaty to discover who (if anyone?) can claim ownership of Mars... And whether those novelty "space deeds" you got for your birthday one time will ever hold up in court!
