Whats the law?

Hang on.......cough.cough.

Ok, suppose I was wandering around the neighborhood one day and I happen across an uninhabited planet that suited my needs. Could I claim it as mine?

yes
because of some law lemme look it up

The Homestead Principle
he Homestead principle in law is the concept that one can gain ownership of a property that currently has no owner by using that property.

Is it a "principle" or "law"?

I didnt think about this aspect of it when I posted this, I was just screwing around. But now your gonna get me fired the fuck up. I would be damned if I would pay taxes to the US or anyone else. Is the US not only going to serve as the worlds police but the universes police too? Now, thats fucked. But if I did find a planet they would just move in and drop a bomb on my ass and just take it.

nah
i think if you actually launched a shuttle and landed on a planet the U.S. cant do shit unless hat wanted to have galactic warfare
