There is a huge auction of Neil Armstrong's stuff going on right now.
Someone decided to capitalize on the movie. Some of it is his Apollo
11 stuff going for a good premium, but not at the level of $70 for a 1mm
square...

I now own something that has orbited the moon. My youngest son bought
this as a gift. NASA has to remove some kind of panels on the command
module for forensic purposes. I am not sure what they covered, but they
were cut up and given to certain members of the team the worked on that
part of the capsule. A collector purchased the sample from the estate
and has cut it up into 1mm sq bits, mounted them and is selling them for
$70. If the original sample was 10 cm square, he is gonna make $700K
off of this.
