Buzz Aldrin’s photo on the moon and a bag of lunar dust to come into Sotheby’s Orbit

British auctioneer Sotheby’s has cracked into an entirely new space of themes.

While most auctions in recent times are based on contemporary themes, Sotheby’s latest concept revolves around Space Exploration, the first since the groundbreaking Russian Space History sales of the 1990s, Luxurylaunches.com reports.

Beautifully scheduled to coincide with the anniversary of the Apollo 11 lunar landing with an intriguing live sale taking place on 20 July, there will be a wide variety of material from both the American & Soviet space programs displayed as collectors’ items for both new and seasoned collectors.
