Dr. George Vesper is the UN spokesperson for the Office for Colonial Development and concurrently serves as Dean of the Faculty of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Luna University. In a 2134 UN Weekly interview, he provided the first detailed public account of the Kuiper Belt vessel — describing it as a functionally inert, non-derelict craft holding a fixed position in open space, distinct from the Pluto wreckage. He confirmed Dome 5’s proposal to tow the vessel to cislunar space and disclosed the Council’s draft language for a Xenodiscovery Charter extending Article I trusteeship to non-human sites and artifacts. He was unambiguous that any technology derived from xenomaterials research would not be patentable or licensable. In 2140, Secretary-General Hansen reaffirmed Vesper’s position that xenosites belong to humanity collectively and went further, floating a ~2148 timeline for a Pluto public museum.
