Wow, yeah, that definitely puts it in perspective. "Just trying to feed her grandkids" and become an instant millionaire, sure, no selfish motives there...

It's never a good idea to try to sell NASA property. Especially for $1.7 million lol.

How is that rock NASA property or stolen?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 68782227

Because NASA collected it from the moon, it's not a lunar meteorite, it's a lunar rock from the Apollo program. They own it.
If someone were willing to pay that much, what concern is that of a government agency? Free market right?
 Quoting: AC

Black market, not free market. It belongs to NASA, not to her, not to her late husband.
All I see is a corrupt agency pursuing damage control rather than have another "Dutch Rock" incident to tarnish their fairy tale
 Quoting: AC

NASA didn't give Drees any rock. He got it via the state department, allegedly. That piece of petrified wood is quite different from any of NASA's moon rocks.
 Quoting: The Deplorable Astromut


They don't own shit if it were given to him. Do you or anyone have proof this gentlemen stole it?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 68782227

NASA doesn't just give away moon rocks. Even the moon rocks they "gave" to the astronauts who flew the missions were purely ceremonial; the astronaut would then "donate" their moon rock to a museum for display.
