Exemplar only. NOT the actual Moonkin/Moonikin Campos/Campo.

Moonkin Campos — named after Arturo Campus, an electrical engineer who was a key player in bringing the Apollo 13 mission safely back to Earth — is a human-sized test dummy that is now strapped into the commander's chair at the head of the capsule.
During the mission, Moonkin will provide NASA scientists with vital data on what future human crew members may experience during flight. Artemis 1 is NASA's first launch test of the Space Launch System megarocket and an uncrewed test flight to the moon for NASA's Artemis program. The data from Moonikin will help NASA prepare astronauts who will fly around the moon on the Artemis 2 mission in 2024 and the Artemis 3 astronauts who will eventually land on the moon.
These vital measurements will be collected by two sensors placed behind the commander's seat and under the headrest which will record the acceleration and vibration generated throughout the mission to the moon. Campo is also equipped with two radiation sensors to measure exposure.

Send Pelosi — she likes to travel.
We should have had lunar bases a long time ago.
??
Haven’t we been there a few times?
Seems a waste of millions
She’s altready a lunatic, ahem.

If we are going to industrialize space, we need a low gravity launch pad that has rocket fuel materials. At this point it’s not about exploration, but exploitation. As such, we should be giving tax credits to private companies to do the heavy lifting. One simply needs to read the history of the colonization of North America to establish a model. And, the bonus is (probably) no indigenous people to hurt.
Campos and Helga might get “familiar” with each other during those long, lonely days up/out there. But you never know about Zohar. He/She/It is bafflingly unpredictable.
It would be much better spent on more 10 year long "Compassionate" wars, costing multiple trillions, even if we don't win anything. Or subsidizing tens of millions of illegals to the tune of many billions.
so she packed the alternate hands in his duffel bag.
Suddenly NASA is concerned about radiation (at least publicly).
Interesting.
Copying SpaceX merely shows lack of imagination
Steve Mnuchin had no comment.
He has the right face and knows what’s about to happen to him ,LOL
Well there is that.
Hopefully that stops soon
There isn't a pile of money somewhere waiting for orders. It’s not the government’s money. The money you suggest shuffling is in the pockets of workers.
Stealing is bad no matter how wonderful the thief imagines he is.
Great. Next up: MOONkeypox!
Poor Kerbals ,LOL
Excellent.
