Missing: moon rocks valued at $5M
June 1, 2010 The rocks, given to the state, in 1974 are valued at $5 million
on the black market and few even realized they existed until a
college student began searching for them as part of an assignment.
Another set of moon rocks collected in 1969 was found in storage
at the state history museum about a decade ago. They are now on
display on the third floor of the state Capitol.
Neither the history museum nor the Denver Museum of Nature &
Science has the second set of rocks and the governor's office
doesn't know where they are.
