The Navajo nation is now claiming the moon as their own sacred site

The Navajo Nation is trying to ground the first commercial burials in space, insisting that the plan to memorialize humans on the moon will turn a place sacred to native religions into a “waste site.”
The Biden administration stepped in Friday to defuse the brewing star war, CNN reported, calling a hasty White House meeting ahead of the scheduled Monday launch of a rocket set to send the remains of George Washington, John F. Kennedy, and a constellation of “Star Trek” idols into space.
“The moon holds a sacred place in Navajo cosmology,” said Navajo president Buu Nygren.
“The suggestion of transforming it into a resting place for human remains is deeply disturbing and unacceptable to our people.”
“We’re turning the moon into a graveyard and we’re turning it into a waste site,” said Justin Ahasteen of the Navajos’ Washington office.
The two-stage Vulcan Centaur rocket has been packed with the remains of 333 people, including the late “Star Trek” creator Gene Roddenberry, his wife, recurring cast member Majel Barrett-Roddenberry, several fellow USS Enterprise actors, and others whose families paid for the privilege.
Hair samples from three US presidents — Washington, JFK, and Dwight D. Eisenhower — are also aboard, courtesy of Celestis, a privately owned space burial company.
“We reject the assertion that our memorial spaceflight mission desecrates the moon,” said Celestis CEO Charles Chafer.
“Our memorial on the moon is handled with care and reverence … No one, and no religion, owns the moon.”

Navajo can have the moon just as soon as they build their first rocket that flys them to the moon.

I really thought this was satirical piece by the Bee.

Wait, are you telling me that remains from these former presidents are being sent to the moon? Did someone go into their graves to retrieve said remains? This can’t be real, right?

Why have we spent more on rovers for Mars than the moon?
The Navaho. Who knew.

Sorry. It’s the well known FLAG rule of ownership. The US flag was the first on the moon. It’s ours. :)

What kind of demented waste of money is this?

If they can figure out how to get through the van Allen radiation belt, let em have it.

They can have it. The moon doesn’t seem like a good place to hang and have a beer.

Damn. I can see why dibs were called.

They need to claim DC is sacred and evict the uni-party.
