This presentation of Apollo 11 moon dust from Armstrong's film magazine absolutely real.

Beyond a shadow of a doubt.

Florian Noller put these together after purchasing in a space memorabilia auction this moon dust tape mounted in an official NASA presentation board that was given to Mr. Slezak by NASA. Mr. Slezak was the first earth bound human to have been "infected" with moon dust and thus was put into quarantine with the three Apollo 11 astronauts. Florian cut this tape into tiny 3mm+ triangles, and mounted them on a photo that Armstrong took using the same film magazine that he dropped. These presentations cost no less than $1,000 in 2006, now they are all sold and the last one is $1,895.

So, yes the moon dust on the tape is the real deal; from the first mission to the moon. A major historical event... Something that will be remembered as long as Mankind can remember.

Is it worth it?

Yes.

And for $456...

Absolutely.

Steve

Hi ladies and gentlemen (and friends watching at home!) -

It's time to play America's favorite game - "REAL OR BOGUS?"

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320324463986

Today's offering comes from the intrepid world of eBay. Here we see
something billed as real moon dust that was recovered from Neil
Armstrong's camera magazine.

So, I have to ask everyone who is playing - REAL OR BOGUS?

(If I was a gambling man, I'd say BOGUS)

Regards and clear skies,

MikeG
