No more full moons, but...

[TVDad Jim]

Well, there's no more full moons because the astronauts brought some
of it back with them, right? :)


In the middle of the Gallery of Flight at NASM, you can touch a piece
of the Moon.

Questions:

What part of the Moon is this sample from? What mission, locale?

Where else besides the Moon and NASM can you touch a piece of the
Moon?

There's a sample at JSC open for public touching.

Or you can buy a lunar meteorite and own a piece of the moon.
