福克斯新闻 阿姆斯特朗月球样本袋被拍卖 估价400万美元

A plain looking pouch¹, it's only markings are a thick zipper² and the label 'Lunar Sample Return' could fetch as much as four million bucks³ when Sotheby's puts it up for auction⁴ this week.

看起来很简单的小包，上面的标记也只有厚拉链和“月球带回样本”标签，当这个小包在本周的苏富比拍卖会拍卖时，或将带来高达400万美元的收益。

It's the very bag used by Neil Armstrong, during the Apollo 11 mission, to haul back moon rocks. The bag had been missing for decades.

原来，小包是尼尔·阿姆斯特朗在阿波罗11号登月任务期间用来装月球岩石的。几十年来，这个包包一直下落不明。

Sotheby's has more space memorabilia for the highest bidder⁵, including Gus Grissom's space suit. The auction will be held Thursday, which is also the 48th anniversary of the first lunar landing.

苏富比拍卖行还有更多太空纪念品，包括格斯·格里索姆的太空服，等着出价最高的买主。拍卖会将于周四，也就是首次登月48周年这日举行。
