21st Century Space Accords

The 21st Century Space Accords was an extremely influential document approved and enacted by the United Nations in the year 2000. The Accords gave heavy international investment into private and public space exploration and travel research, and allowed claims on celestial bodies, setting off the initial colonization of Luna.

Aerospace Investment
The Accords established a 35-year sovereign wealth fund of 500bn USD, funded by the World Bank, the IMF, and several payments by major nations. This fund was then invested in major companies and institutions within the aerospace sector, with military investment disallowed. Billions of dollars began to flow into major companies such as Boeing, Rockwell International, Krunichev, CCAC, and IAI at its inception.
