Where are the Apollo Moon Rocks? We Asked a NASA Expert

Where are the Moon rocks from the Apollo missions kept? When they are not being studied by institutions or enjoyed by museumgoers, NASA has a specialized Lunar Sample Curation Laboratory at NASA’s Johnson Space Center (JSC) to store and keep these otherworldly samples safe. Studying these samples helps us learn more about the origin of not only our moon, but our planet. Deputy Apollo Sample Curator (Sept. 2019–Dec. 2022) Dr. Juliane Gross explains more about lunar sample curation.
