Sammy - I just did a quick search on this. Evidently, in 1969 on the heels of Michael Crichton's "Andromeda Strain", NASA did enact a regulation calling for "quarantine" in the case of extraterrestrial exposure. Apollo 11 was about to make it's historic trip to the moon. The regulation has been repealed as it "served its purpose". www.access.gpo.gov/nara/cfr/waisidx_08/14cfrv5_08.html(Snopes) www.snopes.com/legal/et.aspBessie
