      I have actually! There was a Moon rock at a museum ( I forget which one) and you were allowed to touch it with 1 finger though a little plastic window.

      Only 12 astronauts have actually been to the Moon in the 1960’s and 70’s.

      I touched moon rock that was inside plastic!

      Only 12 humans have been to the moon and lots of lucky research scientists at NASA have touched real moon rocks that they brought back. The final Apollo missions brought back A LOT of rocks. They had some interesting quarantine and customs forms to submit at the USA border!! 😉
