    Andy Weir
    “LOG ENTRY: SOL 381 I’ve been thinking about laws on Mars.

    Yeah, I know, it’s a stupid thing to think about, but I have a lot of free time.

    There’s an international treaty saying no country can lay claim to anything that’s not on Earth. And by another treaty, if you’re not in any country’s territory, maritime law applies.

    So Mars is “international waters.”

    NASA is an American nonmilitary organization, and it owns the Hab. So while I’m in the Hab, American law applies. As soon as I step outside, I’m in international waters. Then when I get in the rover, I’m back to American law.

    Here’s the cool part: I will eventually go to Schiaparelli and commandeer the Ares 4 lander. Nobody explicitly gave me permission to do this, and they can’t until I’m aboard Ares 4 and operating the comm system. After I board Ares 4, before talking to NASA, I will take control of a craft in international waters without permission.

    That makes me a pirate!

    A space pirate!”
    Andy Weir, The Martian
