Description

Photograph of Irving Spiegel, David Strangway, J. Tuzo Wilson, and E.A. Robinson from the first public showing in Canada of the moon samples from 11-12 October 1969 in the North Building of Erindale College before they were relocated to the newly-built Physical Properties Laboratory, now Paleomagnetism Laboratory, for geological research. When the first lunar samples arrived and were exhibited, more than 3,000 people lined up for a peek at a moon rock no bigger than a golf ball and a thimbleful of moondust.
