Unreal Estate

Unreal Estate is the Fen term for stations (and ships) like the Island, Grover's Corners, and Crystal Tokyo -- chunks of land that were boosted into space, and are still recognizable as Earth or Lunar soil.

Land Theft is an increasingly-common term in the 'Danelaw for Unreal Estate, based on the argument that while land can be owned by individuals, removing it from the Earth is effectively stealing it from future generations -- and (more importantly, at least to governments) eternally depriving whatever jurisdiction it came from of any future tax revenue on it. Legal experts have generally agreed that this argument is specious and unlikely to stand up to a serious judicial challenge, but that did not prevent the United States from passing the Federal Land Theft Prevention Act in 2012.
