It might be the most expensive meal in history.

Moon dust was retrieved from the guts of bugs that scientists fed lunar soil to the Apollo 11 astronauts in 1969. The remains of the insect that ate the smallest amount of soil so scientists could study its effects are up for auction, along with other items from the study.

This material has been transformed from moon dust to cockroach chyme, a one-of-a-kind rarity in the space marketplace, according to the seller.

Minuscule Matter

According to collectSPACE, a sample of Apollo 11 moon dust was so small that it couldn't be weighed and was sold for $500,000. The roach lot is estimated to go for $400,000, a hefty price considering some of the dust was spilled and gathered back up.

Bidding opened yesterday and currently sits at $11k.

Roach Coach

One of the scientists who worked on the original study said that the soil didn't seem to be harmful to the bugs, even though they were dead when she acquired them.

If roaches can eat Moon dirt, they might be able to survive climate apocalypse on Earth and escape to its nearest satellite.

There is a moon-shaped ice crystal on the space station.
