Seriously though, is this not fraud?

[ Update ]

He's also selling plots of land on the moon & venus. Along with some stars.

Over in Bad Bad Astronomy, the BA asked for help in weeding out adverts that are inappropriate to this site. I definitely think you should report this one.

Actually heard about this from someone on the radio saying that it was to bad that land on Mars was being sold without regards for the people that have been there for "a zillion years"

I heared a radio add for that star registry company we always talk about. They are running a whole bunch of adds recently for Valentines day. They say that for a certain amount of money they will name a satr and put that name in a book that will reside in the paptent office. See thats the trickey part. Its a book in the office, they do not recognize your star itself. :-)

Do you think if I bought the landing sites for the 5 or so probes that worked after landing I could take NASA to court and charge rent?

Dancar

There should be a company that names clouds aftter people.

I'll just make my own certificate, and save a few bucks.

It sounds like fraud, however what may save him from a fraud charge, is that on the bottom of the information, it says something like "this novelty item..."

When I read that something is a novelty item, I assume that it is a joke, and I would not take it seriously. However that comment was at the bottom of the add, making it hard to see.


Walter has the right idea, just make your own certificate--if you have a printshop type program, you should be able to make one.
