If you can't spot it in the picture, the sculpture is a little figure of person.

Conceived by astronaut David Scott. Approved for flight and placement by NASA, even in disallowing the figurine to be encased in flammable plastic.

Controversial, only because the guy that made it then tried to sell copies off the publicity. And yet he went ahead and sold them in 2019 anyway (at a now-broken gallery website that now lets you add 10000 to your cart for zero euros.)

And then signed up astronaut Al Worden to help shill them.
