Camera from the moon sells for €550k

It was put on auction as the only camera that made it to the moon and back. And it had its price – €550,000.

The Hasselblad 500 was described by Vienna auctioneers Galerie Westlicht as part of the equipment carried by the 1971 Apollo 15 mission – and the only camera ever brought back from the moon. The others were left behind to make room for mineral samples, it said.
