Scientific paper

The hypothesis that the moon could harbor viable life forms was not verified on analysis of the first samples from the Apollo 11 mission. Biological examination of 50 grams of the bulk fines confirm the negative results obtained by the Manned Spacecraft Center quarantine team. No viable life forms, including terrestrial contaminants, were found when the sample was tested in 300 separate environments. Only colored inorganic artifacts, resembling microbial clones, appeared around some particles.
