[QUOTE="Janx, post: 6851121, member: 8835"] I would assume that in any and all circumstances of bringing a thing from off-planet to Earth would go through a series of quarantine, inspection and decontamination procedures. Now in a good sci-fi movie, that process fails and we'll be 2 hours away from being all dead while the good doctor tries to find a cure. But in real life, NASA most likely really did do a bunch of paranoid stuff with the rocks returned from the moon. Neil Armstrong didn't tuck one away in his undies so he could sneak it home to his kids. So I expect a protocol already exists for bringing stuff back to earth, and measures would be multiplied when we're looking at a case of "known" ET biological was in the area. Just bringing back one urn from the site, might contain cthulu-knows-what cooties inside that have been sleeping (like stuff found in egypt) that thrived when Mars was warm and wet and populated. They aren't just going to pop the hatch at Baikanur and start pawing through the artifacts with their bare hands :) [/QUOTE]
