4bn-year-old 'Earth rock' found in Apollo 14 crew's moon haul
4bn-year-old 'Earth rock' found in Apollo 14 crew's moon haul
#1
What may be one of the oldest known rocks from Earth has been found in the material that Apollo 14 astronauts brought home from the moon nearly 50 years ago.
“We can never undo what we have done. We can never go back in time. We write history with our decisions and our actions. But we also write history with our responses to those actions. We can leave the pain and the damage in our wake, unattended, or we can do the work of acknowledging and fixing, to whatever extent possible, the harm that we have caused.”

What are the odds of making a find like that in the few Apollo missions that actually landed!?

Depends on just how much debris was tossed at the moon in that event.  If the impact was big enough, there could be fragments of Earth rock scattered all over the visible face of the moon

I can see the conspiracy sites now: NASA admits "Moon landing" rocks from Earth all along

Nah Labster, you have to go deeper. The rocks were actually planted during the moon mission by shape-shifted reptilians from Sigma Draconis 7, to provide "evidence" for the theories of evolution and a non-divine origin of the earth!
