Episode Details

Maryland just got its first official natural science museum—and it’s already pulling out all the stops with a jaw-dropping exhibit featuring real moon rocks gifted by President Nixon. These cosmic treasures, part of a billion-year geological journey from ancient fossils to lunar souvenirs, are now safely displayed after years of being lost or scattered across state offices, crab boat captains, and even TV shows. With newfound institutional backing, the museum is poised to expand its collections while guarding these priceless artifacts against an underground market that’s worth millions. It’s not just about rocks—it’s a celebration of Maryland’s scientific legacy and humanity’s reach for the stars.
