They placed a series of these ten across, ten deep, on the moon during the Apollo 11 mission, and then shot lasers at it from various points on Earth to measure the distance.
APPRAISER: Apollo 11 is really the epicenter of the space program.
And when we landed on the moon, really kind of shot light waves, you know, around the world, so, anything connected to Apollo 11 is, is very interesting.
We look inside, we can see there's a prism in there.
And that would've been part of the reflection process that would've ref, reflected the laser.
It's got the re, reflective foil on it.
As an object, it's pretty innocuous, but it's, it's a wonderful, space-designed piece.
There is precedent for things that were designed and never, went into space.
I think at auction, we'd be talking something like, conservatively, in the $5,000 to $7,000 range.
GUEST: Wow!
APPRAISER: With, I think, some upside potential.
GUEST: Right, thank you so much.
APPRAISER: Thank you.
