Using materials from the links on the UN Office for Outer Space Affairs website,

and other resources ( Googling is encouraged), write a 4-7 page, double-spaced essay (footnoted with bibliography) on the following:
Summarize the Articles of the Agreement
Review who are Parties to the Agreement and what states are missing. Significance?
What kinds of celestial bodies are included? (e.g., are asteroids ok to claim and exploit in outer space?)
Are mining of materials on celestial bodies permitted for fabricating fuels, etc., for further space exploration without compensation to the global community? (i.e., while one cannot lay claim to the Moon or other bodies, can they claim property rights over natural resources?)
How will an international regime look as referenced to in Article 11? If one is not established, does this remove Parties from sharing in the results of exploitation? Is the Law of the Sea regime a useful analogy for the creation of a space version?
Do the terms exploration, use, and exploitation have different applications depending upon to whom one is referring? (i.e., do all equally apply to both states and other entities [e.g., consortia, private companies]?)
While the Registration Convention makes an effort to indicate what information to provide the UN Registry, what are the stipulations in the Moon Treaty and its implications?
What is the legal status of manned stations and colonies on the Moon and other celestial bodies?
