NASA also does everything they can to save weight though.
On later Apollo missions, they cut the number of band-aids in the lunar lander's first aid kit from 6 to 12 to save weight.
Doubled the bandaids to save weight. I can see why the tampon thing was a struggle for them.
They're to replace the tampons

I'm a government employee, so it makes sense that even my efficiency programs create bloat.
