For the first time in years, privately held, verified lunar samples went up for auction, topping $500,000 at last week’s Bonhams auction. The sale was probably the best-documented opportunity to add legitimate, authenticated lunar material to space enthusiast’s collection, not to mention the first one to come available in years. Lunar samples and moon material is held to be a national treasure by NASA, and the sample that reached auction was the beneficiary of their dogged pursuit to retain every last micron of moon dust they possibly can.
