Martin, Had you been following this thread you would know that their has yet to be a court case to determine whether a private individual may or may not legally own an Apollo lunar rock. Steve and Phil have both pointed out such cases where two different people have claimed to own and tried to sell their Lunar material. One lost the case on the basis of import laws and the other on the basis that they could not analysis the rock in resin so, they still got to keep their rock. In addition I have personally seen yet another of these resin examples owned by a retired Raytheon manager. I have held it in my own hands. To bad I did not carry a camera at the time. But it does exist. It has also been stated that their are no records of these giveaways. Who knows how many of them are out there. So, there is nothing plain and simple about it. Yet. sorry.
