According to randomme Google search there's 382 kg of moon rock on
Earth - which _isn't_ for sale. Just how fast do you think the purported
"$5 million" for a few grams will drop if 20 kg are dropped on the market?
If that 20 is doubled to 40 it is far from guaranteed that the _value_ will
also double.


Imagine
that one company using tethers has sent back 2,000 Kg and that another
company using all chemical rockets has sent back 20 Kg, which one
do you wish you had shares in?


The one that did it _first_. ;-)
