List,

The HE3 mining idea is over 40 years old, earlier than 1972 to be exact.

"Of the 12 men who have walked on the moon, the last to set foot there, Harrison (Jack) Schmitt, is the only one with scientific training (he has a Ph.D. in geology). He has seen and done things most scientists only dream of. Schmitt's work on the Moon in 1972 ranks as one of the most exciting and productive episodes in the history of exploration. His memories of the three days he spent in the Valley of Taurus-Littrow are a priceless treasure trove of scientific and aesthetic insights. Unfortunately, those experiences are not the subject of his new book, Return to the Moon.

NWA5000 Adam Hupe was the prime mover of the discovery and sole owner listed in the METBULL! It is a fantastic rock, but this self-promoting by Greg Hupe is getting to be OLD. Nearly Lunatic! Please enough info ADs!

Thank you Greg, please wait a few MORE YEARS, for crying out loud. We have heard plenty over the past 50 some posts, mostly bickering. Enough!

Hello All,

I would like to congratulate Naveen Jain and his Moon Express Team for
furthering their goal towards being the first private company to land on
Earth's Moon and to eventually utilize its resources for the advancement of
mankind. With today's news, Moon Express has the green light to set its
course and landing for 2017.

What does this mean - Fuel. Helium-3 is abundant on our moon, but did you
know that it is also abundant in lunar meteorite Northwest Africa 5000 (NWA
5000)?! I didn't truly appreciate the gravity of that fact until, in 2011,
I sold and personally delivered a complete slice of NWA 5000 to Naveen on
the behalf of partners/owners of the slice at the time, Jeff Krosschell and
Adam Hupe. At that time, the 'Ambassador Slice' was the only complete slice
available of NWA 5000 and to this day Naveen has reassured its namesake
through his worldwide showing of this amazing slice. Who would have thought
that a 'simple' meteorite could unite, or ignite a World?

Africa 5000 (NWA 5000):
