I thought space, by international treaty, had been declared no ones property? Or did that only cover the moon?

I think whether you can own a vacuum or not, is quite a deep philosophical question.

wow, i've been quoted 3 times in this thread...

anyways, even if the American government claimed the rights to space, they can't really defend it too effectively. Not like they got a laser orbiting around the earth to destroy shuttles and such, unless i'm wrong here and have been under a rock for the past 10 years.

I've owned like eight vacuums so far, and they're all horrible. Carpet here isn't thick enough so it's like trying to vacuum a wood floor, but it's not wood....

OH a VACUUM....right...

I think not. Because, technically, you are only in possession of the pressurized space capsule. Anything outside of that will turn your body into mashed potatoes..

Depends where we find them. If we find them in space ships in our solar system, we are done for.
