A lunar sample return bag from Apollo 11, once in the Cosmosphere basement and later sold by U S Marshals, will be auctioned by Sotheby's for about 2 million dollars. Nancy Lee Carlson bought the bag for 995 dollars, had it authenticated, sued NASA to keep it, and now partners with Sotheby's for a new sale.
