The mmm contains a shell that is a return rocket. The shell would be design to bite into the surface on impact, sealing off a payload of material. The load container then fires creating a beautiful man made crater and a "long-shot" profit on re- entry recovery.

Annotation:







       I like this for a science fiction short story first contact concept. Many such would land across our planet, taking a bite of whatever and then shooting back. Alien invasion by aliens with 1970s technology. Humans calculate return trajectory and beat returning rockets back to their source. Awed aliens there apologize humbly and profusely, blaming administrations of several decades prior for this poorly thought out idea.

       How much is a handful of moon dust worth?

       This seems like an interesting idea, but on closer inspection it is revealed to be interesting and yet not a complete idea. Perhaps some context to help the uninformed understand what the hell you're on about would engender a more favorable reaction from [The Alterother].

       mmm cheese ( the 2 is a halfbakery/computer file naming artifact). Sorry I have been playing too much Hearts lately.   

       I disagree, this is an complete idea. How detailed, feasible, or sane the idea is, is totally debatable. I thought mass production of a simplification of an idea was how mankind became great.

       //How much is a handful of moon dust worth   

       The value is all speculation until a mineral surveyor has had a probe.
