Experts believe Grimes and rapper Lil Uzi Vert's claim that he's in the midst of 'legally' purchasing a planet is 'bogus.'

On Thursday, rapper Lil Uzi Vert and singer Grimes were trending on Twitter when Grimes said that the rapper will become the first person to "legally" buy a planet.

"Apparently @LILUZIVERT owns this planet - just a heads up," Grimes tweeted, accompanied by a photo of WASP-127b, a massive exoplanet found in 2016. 



On Twitter, Lil Uzi Vert claimed to confirm Grimes' allegations, saying he is in the process of purchasing the planet. 
The artists' statements prompted a Twitter debate about whether it was feasible to buy a planet. The musicians' representatives have not responded to numerous requests for comment from Insider, but two experts have claimed the accusations are false.
"If someone sold him a planet or he believes he owns this planet in the traditional sense," Frans Von der Dunk, a professor of Space Law at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, told Insider. "It's a ruse."

The 1967 Outer Space Treaty, which was supported by the United Nations, was cited by Von der Dunk and Ram Jakhu, the head of McGill's Institute of Air and Space Law. All nations and their nationals are prohibited from violating the pact. 

Collecting minerals, according to Jakhu, is the closest anybody can go to owning land in space. The US government began permitting companies to gather materials from space in order to study it in 2015.

Despite the 1967 treaty, numerous persons have claimed ownership of space land throughout the years. Greg Nemitz, a space activist, sued NASA in 1996 for landing on an asteroid he claimed he owned. Sylvio Langevin filed a lawsuit in a Quebec courtroom in 2012, claiming ownership of the solar system's planets. Both cases were thrown out. The Lunar Embassy Corporation has made tens of millions of dollars selling plots of land on the Moon to tens of thousands of individuals since the 1990s.

Planets would be worth hundreds of trillions of dollars if they were sold as a commodity one day. An astronomer estimated that the Earth will be worth $5 quadrillion in 2020.

"You may give them your money, but it will be useless," Jakhu explained. "There will always be businesses attempting to sell you products. Why wouldn't they earn money from you if they can? However, this does not imply that it is legally recognized."

Lil Uzi Vert had previously been renowned for his pranks. The rapper had a $24 million pink diamond implanted in his forehead earlier this year. The rapper, who is best known for his song "XO Tour Llif3" and for his role in the film "Bad and Boujee," has indicated an interest in space and technology on several occasions. Many of his compositions, notably the majority of his album "Eternal Atake," deals with the subject of space travel.

He included the hashtag #neuralink in a tweet on Thursday, a reference to Tesla CEO Elon Musk's business, which is working on computer chips that can be implanted in people. In addition, Musk is Grimes' boyfriend.

According to the tweet, Uzi and Grimes openly committed in February to get brain chips together by 2022 in order to potentially obtain "knowledge of the Gods."
