It has been up there for millions of years and nobody has thought of its earning potential-until now.
Angeles Duran,a 49 year old from Galicia-a small village in the border of Spain and Portugal has bought The Sun.And i thought until now that if somebody owns a star ,it must be God.
Although the International Space Treaty prevents any governments from claiming any planet or star as their property,it says nothing about individuals.The local notary gave her an official document in November 2010 which states that Angela is,'the owner of the Sun,a star of spectral type G2,located in the centre of the solar system,at an average distance from Earth of around 149,600,000 km.'
Now that she owns the Sun she plans to levy a fee on anyone who uses 'her property' which includes those who benefits from solar energy.She has declared that she will give half of the profits made from the Sun to the Spanish goverment,10% to the pension fund,10% will be used to end world hunger,10% for research and the remaining 10% will be for her personal use...!!
