This, a thousand times. There’s a perfectly good legal precedent, too.

"I'd like to spend a moment to remember all of those people, dead and alive who made this possible, not just the scientists and engineers responsible for these marvellous machines, and our predecessors who tested them, but also to the politicians and citizens who gave us their backing, and to the poets and authors who gave us all the ability to dream, the strive to better ourselves, to all of those people I say thank you."

Except there's a little problem. That treaty in 1967 that made it illegal for nations to claim heavenly bodies.
Too utopian for my tastes and unrealistic. It'll be repealed someday.

It’s completely psychotic; you’re right. Nothing utopian about it. It’ll be de facto repealed the second the first mining ship lands on the first asteroid.
No, it will be kept and strictly enforced. Of course by then corporations will rule and it will be their mining ships landing and treaty doesn't apply to them.
