This really makes me wonder if they are planning IPv6 blocks specifically for lunar or extraterrestrial use…or if NASA and other agencies would just use their own ranges on the moon.
Who would be in charge? Like here, ARIN/RIPE/APNIC handle their own global regions. Would there be another agency in charge of the whole moon? Or would the existing agencies just have jurisdiction over the lunar regions colonized by their member states?

You’re in luck. The IETF published a document on the topic just last year:
