The Carter administration was in favor of approving the treaty. But with the election of Ronald Reagan the Moon Treaty is a “dead issue,” according to administration officials and Congressional sources. President Reagan does not plan to submit the treaty for ratification to the Senate and, even if he did, there is a consensus that the Foreign Relations Committee would not pass it. “The danger is over,” said one informed Senate source. “It’s not going anywhere so nobody has to worry about it.”

Dude, here is a quotation from an officially reported judicial opinion, which contains the official citation for the reatified 1967 treaty:

The Treaty on Principles Governing the Activities of States in the Exploration and Use of Outer Space, Including the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies FN49 [the Space Treaty], was signed at Washington, London, and Moscow on 27 January 1967, and entered into force on 10 October 1967.

FN49. 18 U.S.T. 2410, T.I.A.S. 6347, 61 U.N.T.S. 205 (1967).

Beattie v. U.S. 756 F.2d 91, 99, 244 U.S.App.D.C. 70, 78 (C.A.D.C.,1984)
