Apollo 12 team quarantined after moon rock exposure
Eleven people including seven scientists and four contractor workers were ordered into isolation after a rubber glove rupture while examining moon rocks. The quarantine affects Apollo 12 crew Charles Conrad Jr., Richard F. Gordon Jr., and Alan L. Bean, with work slowed as 20 scientists remain to complete preliminary lunar rock examinations. NASA will keep quarantines until the material is verified harmless and some staff will continue work from quarantine facilities while the astronauts review moon-landing films.
