A solid gold replica of the first vehicle to land on the moon that was given to Neil Armstrong went missing Friday, NPR reported.
 
Police discovered the 1969 Lunar Excursion Module model was missing when they responded to an alarm that went off in the Armstrong Air and Space Museum in Wapakoneta, Ohio.

In a statement on their Facebook page, the museum said, "Three hundred people driving from across the country were robbed of their opportunity to experience the museum today. For every day that an item is missing, we are all robbed of an opportunity to enjoy it and our history."

There is a whole underground to fence stuff like that.   This is big though. Really big.    It might have been a contract heist so there would be no middle men.   Look for some dead bodies to show up anyday now.
