Artemis I will be an important step in NASA’s goal to land the first woman and the first person of color on the Moon and establish long-term lunar exploration. This mission will be the first flight test of the integrated Orion spacecraft and Space Launch System rocket. Although the Artemis I mission is uncrewed, there will be an important passenger aboard: a manikin, or Moonikin, that will be used to measure acceleration, vibration, and radiation data during the mission.
, the Moonikin was named “Commander Moonikin Campos” as a dedication to Arturo Campos, a key player in bringing the Apollo 13 mission back to Earth.Lockheed Martin, Orion Occupant Protection Specialist, Dr. Mark BaldwinNASA Orion Crew Survival Systems Project Manager, Dustin Gohmert,NASA’s Johnson Space Center History Office Manager, John Uri
