Moon Rocks

by Henry S.F. Cooper Jr.

"An account of the activities at the Houston Space Center during the Apollo 11 moon landings, and the events afterwards among the scientists connected to the program. Henry S.F. Cooper takes you to the Lunar Receiving Station and reports what the scientists did with the rocks and how their discoveries either upheld or overturned competing theories. Being a scientific reporter, Henry gives you the scientific facts about the rocks and the human drama that unfolded when scientists with competing theories met and discussed their findings."
