1972 Moon Rock To Be On Display In N.C.
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) ―
It traveled all the way from the moon -- to a desk drawer in North Carolina.

The state's official moon rock is getting some respect. Next year it will go on
display at a new wing of the state Museum of Natural Sciences.

The moon rock was returned to Earth by the Apollo 17 astronauts in
December of 1972.

It somehow ended up in a drawer at the state Department of
Commerce. In recent years, N.C. State University Professor Christopher
Brown has used the rock during visits to school groups.

But he's happy it is getting a new home. He tells The News & Observer of
Raleigh thousands of people will soon get to see the moon rock.

Article I found.......... proof that the tax guys wind up getting their hands on EVERYTHING that comes into North Carolina!!!!!!
