Moon rocks, chunks of Mars auctioned in New York
Meteorites from Mars and the biggest piece of the Moon ever offered for sale went on the block on Sunday in New York in what organizers billed as history's largest meteorite auction, which brought in over $1 million. More than 125 meteorites were offered in the private sale, from gray pockmarked lumps of iron to highly polished slabs glittering with extraterrestrial gems.           

But many of the big-ticket items, estimated to sell for $50,000 or more, did not find buyers.
