Apparently the “moon rock” the U.S. gave to Dutch Prime Minister Willem Drees to commemorate NASA’s “moon mission” in 1969 has been revealed to be nothing more than petrified wood. The wood has been on display at the Dutch National Museum in Amsterdamn since Drees’ death in 1988. The Dutch were also saddened to discover that the magic glowing crystals on display at the museum were pieces of gravel colored in yellow highlighter.
