Moon rocks have been donated to various parts of the world. But where are they now? During Apollo 17 flight in December 1972, Eugene Cerna and Harrison Schmitt picked up a big block of rock. We would like to share this piece of rock as many parts as there are countries in the world, Cerna said. His wish came true. President Richard Nixon ordered that the brick-sized moon rock is cut into small pieces. They were sent to 135 heads of states as well as to 50 U.S. states. Also the moon rock from Apollo 11 flight was cut into parts to be distributed abroad in 1969. Two flight was a total of 370 pieces of moon rocks. 270 pieces were divided into different states, 100 to U.S. Of these, 184 pieces are missing. They have been stolen or whereabouts are otherwise unknown. In USA, there are 24 missing rocks. The rest 160 moon rocks were divided among Afghanistan as Trinidad and Tobago It is. Also to Libya went a couple of rocks. To Muammar Gaddafi's administration was given two moon rocks. They, too, are missing. The above does not prove, trips to the moon undone. This only certify the moon rocks did not have a great value. This makes a person's imagination. In a case that we do not know of these scientists. 30.3.2015*08:20 (402 - 1025) |
