A valuable Moon rock from the United States turned out to be a worthless piece of wood. The Amsterdam museum presented the “Moonstone,” which was in fact just a piece of wood. The moon rock had originally been received by former Dutch Prime Minister Willem Drees from the United States Ambassador in 1969.

Conclusion

The fossilized pieces of wood could not be easily distinguished from the Moon rocks. Still, it was possible to travel to the Moon with the technology of the 1960s. What methods were used to examine the fossils, and what NASA concluded about the stones, is not known. Moon rocks were considered proof of the Moon landing. If this piece of wood is not from Earth, the matter becomes more complicated. The case shows how easily samples can become mixed. In any case, NASA’s way of examining the samples gives a strange impression. Many other donated samples have also been lost, with reasons given such as their location being unknown.
