Astronauts are by nature not very good at making decisions and being creative, they are selected because they can follow instructions.
There was a scene in the TV series "The Crown" when Prince Phillip met the astronauts from the moon landing when the visited London and the palace.
He insisted on having some time with them alone to talk about what it was like to be the first people on the moon.
When he met them he was totally underwhelmed on how dull and boring they were, he expected some great inspirational explorers.
One of them asked him "how many rooms does the palace have?"
Then they were all running around the corridors like children.
