Is that your first idea is that government regulation of space (or anything
else) is the answer? Damn more government regulations, I'll take my chances
on the signage issue.
So you're up to giving the likes of Obama, Biden and the rest of the
Democrats something else to try and regulate and screw up?
Let me see, according to the Democrats a woman has the right to an abortion,
without questions of any sort; because after all it is after all her body.
That "her body:' part is, of course, a fallacious as well as a biologically
incorrect statement, but nevertheless, it is their own (Democrats) specious
argument. I am not a doctor. I don't even play one on T.V. Therefore I don't
know anything about the morbidity and mortality rates for women currently,
region by region, for their giving birth and/or carrying babies to term.  I
am not anyone to bless or curse any medical decision between a doctor and
patient. However if that same woman happens to be in New York City anytime
in the not too distant future, then right after the abortion she can't go
into a restaurant and have a 32 ounce Coke?
Not to worry though. Currently the United States seems to follow these rules
for the most part.
UNCOPUOS (the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space).
I am not too worried about a Coke or Pepsi ad in the night sky. I would be
more concerned about images of say Ernesto (Che) Guevara, Kim Il Sung or
their ilk. Although the technical challenge and the opportunity to comically
deface such images routinely "would be priceless".

Space X just docked the first recoverable private cargo capsule with the
International Space Station.  Space is going private.  Is that a good thing?
Can we regulate what private companies do in space?  If not is that a bad
thing?

I don't recall if it was Coca Cola or PepsiCo who originally offered to
bankroll the ISS if they could have their logo painted the length of the
station.  Now that we have private companies directly in the space delivery
business how long will it be before there is a 500 mile long light array in
our night sky proudly hawking feminine hygene products?  Without government
regulation how graphic will it be?  LOL.

The real question is, "Which one of us is already working on the shielded
control and communication module for the giant billboard?"
