Hi Sonar,
Yes, that is (supposedly) the original site that put out that news.. I saw all the ones you had links on. Mostly they were copy pasted from this 'notalllowedto' site..
I did a webcrawler and a google search and could not find one legit news site that covered this. On Google, you can click on 'news' and it will show you the articles from the past few months on Nasa & THC. Also, I searched recent news at NASA.. nada..
We all know how they bend and mold the news but without a legit source, our readers will have a field day..
I'll search out Terpene and Nasa to see what I find.. I'm not trying to jump on you for this article :-) Just trying to find its source !! I really do have to search them out...:-)
I did find these..
This one is from 2017. Seems they tried to push it around then.

The first and last reference links at
: https://truthbits.blog/2019/10/27/cosmic-thc-found-on-meteorites
: . were the most interesting, but I didn't find a specific
: mention of THC. I did notice Terpene mentioned, which is
: one of the components of cannabis' medicinal effects and
: just don't feel like checking the other components listed.
: Maybe there were others or, as the article below mentions,
: they may have been nervous about their controversial
: findings.
: I just did a search on Duckduckgo, and found this:
: https://notallowedto.com/marijuana-in-space-nasa-discovers-thc-on-meteorite-fragment/
: Astrophysicists from the University of Hawaii have discovered
: Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) on a meteorite found in the
: Nevada desert in 2010.
: Researchers who analyzed meteorite fragments in search of
: micro-bacterial data found the presence of
: Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) which is found in a variety of
: plants, but most famously in the cannabis plant.
: Astrophysicist (specialized in astrobiology) James Hun, head
: of the research team said: The discovery of THC on
: meteorite fragments will have huge impact on the science of
: astrobiology. If chemical substances, that change brain
: functions and result in alterations in perception, mood, or
: consciousness in humans, find their origin in outer space,
: what role then has cometary impacts played on the human
: species? Or on life on the planet as whole? This discovery
: ultimately leaves us with more questions than answers
: It gives a whole new meaning to the term getting high” he told
: local reporters, with a pinch of humor.
: The discovery of THC on a meteorite fragment could
: “revolutionize our modern understanding of psychoactive
: agents”, says – astrophysicist James Hun of the University
: of Hawaii
: Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the primary ingredient in
: marijuana responsible for the high. It was first discovered
: in 1964 by a scientist in Israel named Dr. Raphael
: Mechoulam.
: Mostly used to get high, THC also has medical benefits like
: relieve pain, nausea, depression and many other. Currently
: it is being analyzed if marijuana can cure cancer.
: While THC is still illegal in most of the U.S. and most
: countries around the world, synthetic versions of the
: chemical have been legally prescribed for decades.
: Tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV) were also found in a meteorite
: fragment in 2009 by a research team from the University of
: Mexico but the findings were dismissed at the time because
: of the “controversial nature of the discovery”.
: Currently scientists and researchers are further analyzing the
: sample and so they could shed some more light on this
: latest finding.
