I bet the first astronauts probably overpacked. You figure they didn’t know what to expect going up to space and all for the first time and most likely took a whole bunch of shit that they never needed - fishing pole, cufflinks, hair dryer, swimming trunks.
You can’t really blame them - how were they supposed to know - it’s outer space after all - melon baller might just come in handy. But I also think that the next time they went to space they gave the new astronauts a hard time about what they packed.
“Hey guys, check it out. Larry here brought shoe polish. Dumbass. What else you got in here Larry? Cell phone charger? Christ look at this – 1 – 2 – 3 how many hooded sweatshirts you think you’re gonna need on the moon Larry?”
Ahhhh Larry. Larry the overpacking astronaut.
