I have a funny feeling that this will also turn up.
Anyone who opened it and saw NASA on the disk should
know it is worth something. I suggest the authorities
scan the pawn shops in the area.
I certainly hope it is found, and the thief caught.
The person who's car was broken into should be
punished. Leaving something like that in a car to be
stolen reeks of irresponsibility.

Hello list,
unlike that time in 2002 when lunar samples were
stolen, the thief has not
yet reached a high enough level of stupidity to
attempt to offer the stolen
rocks for sale on our MKA 's "virtual quarry" (
http://www.minerant.org/vq.html#1963 ).
Should he do so I will of course notify the
authorities again... (LOL).
Could there be a strategy behind these reoccurring
thefts of lunar rocks?
Maybe something like: "Hey, if we just let all the
crooks have a piece of
moon rock they finally might stop stealing them".
Best regards

Jupiter)

Lunar Rock Samples Stolen from Car in Virginia Beach

January 13, 2006
Samples of lunar rocks were stolen from a car in
Virginia Beach Tuesday,
and police need your help in locating them.
Police say around 3:24 p.m., they responded to a
call in the 300 block
of Garcia Drive. When they arrived, the victim told
them a projector,
and a silver briefcase containing a sample of rare
lunar rocks had been
stolen from his car.
The lunar rocks are entrusted to contracted
instructors by NASA for
educational purposes. They are sealed within two
clear plastic disks,
as you see pictured on the right.
The disks are labeled in the center with the words
"meteorite samples"
and "lunar samples." The samples pose no risk to
the public.
Anyone with information regarding this crime is
encouraged to call
Virginia Beach Crime Solvers at 1-888-LOCK-U-UP.
