Moon Rock Imitation

A treasured piece at the Dutch national museum, a supposed moon rock from the first manned lunar landing has been identified by the experts as petrified wood. What a story! How could this have happened?

It's a good story, with some questions that are still unanswered. We can laugh about it.
