After all the news about the latest NASA moon exploration
I'm reminded of the early days of NASA with the Mercury 7. I recall now how small that original capsule was for the astronauts. As a result of this NASA was faced with astronaut candidates dealing with claustrophobia. This probably persisted until one of the scientists realized the solution.
Astronauts just needed space.
