Strange for a 23 year old story…
Nypost is not a credible source. Please don’t link to it
Meh, it’s a human interest story that’s decades old.
I swear I remember reading about this before…
edit: God fucking dammit I’m old:
More than 23 years ago, NASA intern Thad Roberts hatched a daring plan to steal 17 pounds of m
this happened in 2002, if someone wondered
Yeah 23 years ago and we get a present tense headline.
I was genuinely worried it happened again.
Goddamn, now that is a headline!
My inner J Jonah Jameson is impressed, hire that man immediately!
He already works for us?
Perfect!
Never let him know what we pay anybody else!
Weird way to spell “Cave Johnson.”
I mean, I’m not super familiar with how he’s characterized in the comics, but he is characterized this way in the… I guess now the ‘older’ Spider Man movies.

Hopefully they didn’t breathe during.

After his arrest, Roberts admitted to also stealing dinosaur bones and fossils from the Natural History Museum in Salt Lake City.
Checks out.
why would you steal dinosaur bones from salt lake when they’re just laying in the ground a few hundred miles east

moon rocks be made of razors yo.
I mean, you can just buy lunar meteorites and not have to risk the jail term, if you’re that into the idea of “having sex on the moon”. Hell, you can buy Martian meteorites, or outer space meteorites for that matter. The small slices aren’t even all that expensive.
NASA was just upset that their moon rocks were getting more action than their scientists.
That… Is from like 30 years ago or something? I was a kid when I read about this
On the flip side, this creates evidence for Panspermia.
Respect.
Oh yeah, I watched a documentary about that.
What doc? I need to watch it!
I think it’s called The Great Moon Rock Heist. I know it was from NatGeo.
