- Why buy 1gramm moondust for about $4000.- (or 1 pound for $2'000'000)
- when I bought 4g Mars rock for $350.- two years ago???
-
- To get the Mars rock I'm talking of down to earth didn't cost a single cent,
- by the way. The 18kg SNC-meteorit simply fell out of the sky in October, 1962
- near Zagami rock in Nigeria.
-
- Taking all the known SNC meteorites known, there are hardly more than 100pounds
- of mars rock available. Thus, $100.000 for a two inch tape of moondust is quite
- a high price|| I think I'll wait until a *large* lunar meteorite drops down
- somwhere...
-
- So kepp watching out for these space rocks|
