On July 16, 1969, a United States law was passed called the Extra Terrestrial Exposure Law that made it illegal for the public to come in contact with extra-terrestrials or their vehicles. (Title 14, Section 1211 of the Code of Federal Regulations). Anyone found guilty of such contact could face up to one year imprisonment as well as a fine of $5000. Also, any individual who had been exposed could be quarantined under armed guard by the NASA administrator without a hearing.
1211.100 Title 14 - Aeronautics and Space
Part 1211 - Extra-terrestrial Exposure
1211.100 - Scope
This part establishes:
1. NASA policy, responsibility and authority to guard the Earth against any harmful contamination or adverse changes in its environment resulting from personnel, spacecraft and other property returning to the Earth after landing on or coming within the atmospheric envelope of a celestial body.
2. and security requirements, restrictions and safeguards that are necessary in the interest of national security.
1211.101 - Applicability
The provisions of this part to all NASA manned and unmanned space missions which land or come within the atmospheric envelope of a celestial body and return to the Earth.
1211.102 - Definitions
a. NASA and the Administrator mean, respectively the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration or his authorized representative.
b.Extra-terrestrially exposed means the state of condition of any person, property, animal or other form of life or matter whatever, who or which has:

Touched directly or been in close proximity to, or been exposed indirectly to, any person, property, animal or other form of life or matter who or which has been extra-terrestrially exposed by virtue of paragraph, b1, of this section.
For example, if person or thing, A, touches the surface of the Moon, and on, A's, return to Earth, B touches A and, subsequently, C touches B, all of these, A through C inclusive, would be extraterrestrially exposed, A and B directly, C indirectly.
c. Quarantine, means the detention, examination and decontamination of any persons, property, animal or other form of life or matter whatever that is extra-terrestrially exposed, and includes the apprehension or seizure of such person, property, animal or other form of life or matter whatever.

3. Determine that a particular person, property, animal, or other form of life or matter whatever is extra- terrestrially exposed and quarantine such person, property, animal, or other form of life or matter whatever. The quarantine may be based only on a determination, with or without the benefit of a hearing, that there is probable cause to believe that such person, property, animal or other form of life or matter whatever is extra- terrestrially exposed.
4. Determine within the United States or within vessels or vehicles of the United States the place, boundaries, and rules of operation of necessary quarantine stations.

2. Any person who enters the limits of any quarantine station during the quarantine period shall be deemed to have consented to the quarantine of his person if it is determined that he is or has become extra-terrestrially exposed.
3. At the earliest practicable time, each person who is quarantined by NASA shall be given a reasonable opportunity to communicate by telephone with legal counsel or other persons of his choice.

The Extraterrestrial Exposure Law was removed from the CFR in 1991, NASA having determined that it had served its purpose and was no longer in keeping with current policy, and is no longer in force.
