LONDON (Reuters) - One of the world’s largest lunar meteorites goes on private sale at Christie’s on Thursday, valued at 2 million pounds ($2.49 million).
The moon rock, weighing over 13.5 kg, was probably struck off the surface of the moon by a collision with an asteroid or comet and then showered down on the Sahara desert.
As someone who paid for the Apollo missions with my tax dollars, I already own a piece of that rock and want my share. No one "owns" the Moon, so I question the veracity of anyone trying to sell a piece of it.A piece of the moon for sale: just $2.5 million

Someday once mining the moon becomes the norm these rocks are going to drop dramatically in value.

We won't be around to see moon mining as a thriving industry but we will see the start of it with small mining operations similar to what we see with Mars rovers.
