"Still, the FBI said the rocks are now “virtually useless to the scientific community.” A press release added, “They also destroyed three decades worth of handwritten research notes by a NASA scientist that had been locked in the safe.”
The story was documented in Ben Mezrich's 2011 book, Sex on the Moon. .

I wonder if any crew members did the deed while on a stint aboard the ISS?

^^^ Very likely with the last two that spent nine months up there mostly by themselves.
If they did....we will never know.

That's probably why they said the rocks are contaminated now.

Sex on the Moon
A vibrant and otherworldly twist on a classic, the "Sex on the Moon" is a layered cocktail that's as visually stunning as it is delicious. Ingredients 1.5 oz Vodka (for the base, like a rocket preparing for launch) 0.75 oz Peach Schnapps (the sweet, fruity core of the cocktail, representing the juicy core of a celestial body) 0.5 oz Blue Curacao (for that mesmerizing, deep space blue) 0.5 oz Raspberry Liqueur (to add a hint of red, like Martian dust, and another layer of fruity depth) 2 oz Cranberry Juice (for a tart counterpoint and a contrasting layer of color) 2 oz White Cranberry Juice (for a brighter, more subtle layer) Ice Cubes (for chilling the cocktail to cosmic perfection) Garnish A thin orange twist or a slice of star fruit (to represent a distant planet or a shooting star) Edible glitter (for a shimmering, starry effect) Instructions Prepare your glasses: Start with a chilled highball glass, perfect for showcasing the beautiful layers of this cocktail. The Base Layer: Fill the glass with ice cubes, then pour in the vodka and peach schnapps. The Cosmic Blue: Slowly pour the blue curacao over the back of a spoon to create a distinct layer at the bottom. The Raspberry Dust: Gently add the raspberry liqueur, letting it settle into a subtle layer above the blue. The Cranberry Nebula: Carefully pour the cranberry juice over the back of the spoon, creating another distinct layer. The White Cranberry Haze: Lastly, add the white cranberry juice, forming a lighter layer on top. Garnish for Lift-Off: Place the orange twist or star fruit slice on the rim of the glass or gently drop it in. Sprinkle with edible glitter for that extra-terrestrial sparkle. Tips for a stellar "Sex on the Moon" Layering Technique: The key to distinct layers is pouring the denser liquids first and slowly adding lighter liquids over the back of a spoon. Temperature Matters: Chilling your glass and ingredients beforehand will help maintain the layered effect. Experiment with Garnishes: Consider other space-themed garnishes like a cocktail umbrella with star cutouts, or a thin rim of blue sugar for an icy planet feel. Enjoy responsibly, and may your journey to the moon be filled with celestial delight!

Right! I mean, if it's just sex on some rocks he could have gone to a landscaping supply place, bought some odd looking rocks, maybe for added effect spray with some glow in the dark paint, told her they were moon rocks, and knocked one off.

There was another article a few days ago about him. He was asked what his plans are and he said he is working on getting his job back at NASA.
Good luck with that.
