And as for NASA selling Apollo Mission collected specimens if they could get $5 million per gram for them... I'm afraid you lose. Even if they would fetch $1 billion per gram, NASA _cannot_ sell them by law. Price isn't an issue in that regard. They are property of the U.S. Government (i.e. all of us who are U.S. citizens).
are you SURE about that? just because apollo moon rock is the property of the people does NOT automatically mean it cant be sold. there are plenty of things that the government (ie we, the people) own that are sold. if nasa sold moonrock, proceeds would probably have to go to the treasury for use by congress, as opposed to going back into nasa's operating budget, but I'm not aware of any fundamental reason why they couldnt sell the stuff off...
