Dear Sam, Ron, Fred, and list members

Walter Branch must surely be correct in stating the 96 g eBay sample
cannot be lunar due to the cost of such a fragment to NASA. And Steve
pointed out such reproduction samples were common in te 70's.
Nevertheless, NASA does make lunar samples available under strict
guidelines. If you go to the following page and click on "requesting
lunar samples", you can see the "educator discs" made available to
qualified teachers:

Best wishes,
