The Moon is awesome. So awesome, in fact, that NASA fully intends on sending humans back there by 2024. We get to see the Moon every night, provided we have clear skies, and whether you pay attention to it or not, it affects the Earth in profound ways. Most people tend to like it.
Now, if you really, really, really love the Moon, you might be willing to part with some cold hard cash to own a very large piece of it. The chunky lunar meteorite NWA 12691 will be up for sale at Christie’s, and it’s expected to fetch a truly astronomical price.
