Do you wanna be a proud owner of the piece of a moon rock ? Just step yourself into the shoes of Neil Armstrong and say your own “buzz” liner about the landing, similar to what armstrong said, ” One small step for a man, a giant leap for mankind !”. To commemorate the 40th anniversary of the moon landings by the Apollo 11 mission, New Scientist has come with an online competition where in readers are asked to suggest a better statement  what Neil Armstrong could have said. All this for a piece of rock from the very lunar neighbour.

The piece of moon rock is part of a lunar meteorite found by French collector Luc Labenne, in the Dhofar region of Southern Oman, on the eastern border of Yemen.

The deadline to submit your entries to New Scientist website is 5pm GMT on 29 June. The details of the winning entry/entrant would be published in the 18th July issue of New Scientist.
