Sex on the Moon by Ben Mezrich
Ben Mezrich’s Sex on the Moon is a fascinating read for lovers of science, Texas natives and transplants, and true crime enthusiasts alike. This is the story of the harebrained moon rock heist that you’ve probably never heard of. Thad Roberts haphazardly made his way through life until chance led him to the career path of astronaut. He worked hard and earned a spot in the prestigious NASA co-op program which put his inquisitive mind dangerously close to invaluable lunar samples. He found a catalyst for his idea to liberate a small number of moon rocks in his fiery love affair with a beautiful NASA peer. This is a fun ride that leaves you thinking about how you would’ve planned the greatest heist in NASA’s history.
