Interesting. Makes sense that they did that, but, I guess I hadn't ever really thought about injecting lunar "material" into animals or using it for crops.

All due to paranoia over "contamination" of terrestrial live by lunar sources.

I blame Michael Crichton.

You might be right. SciFi authors could have encouraged the testing I suppose.
