ABSTRACT There is no doubt that any long-term lunar mission will need to adopt ISRU to exploit lunar resources. The moon is actually an excellent source of building materials, water, fuel, oxygen, and other useful resources, but some of these are highly localised, while others need to be processed before they can be used. While lunar regolith suitable for construction is found all over the surface, ice that can be used to produce fuel, oxygen, and liquid water is only found in permanent shade, such as in craters or at the poles. Some survey work has been done by orbiters and surface rovers, as well as experiments on Earth, but we still don't know how ISRU will work in practice. There are so many resources like ice on the moon that could support thriving moon bases for decades and allow for the development of a lucrative lunar economy. Furthermore, helium-3 is a moon resource that is scarce on Earth but abundant on the lunar surface and may be cheaper to mine from ...

Sovereignty is a vital and peculiar element of a sovereign state which is a contemporary legal order.  Sovereignty, as we all know, is an essential element of a state which is free from external control and has a hierarchy of norms to make decisions within it's territory.
