Moon Base Agent Attributes: Astronaut Social Simulation for Artemis Missions

Moon Base agent attributes is a dataset created by Raymond Vera, last updated on 2026-05-27. It contains data from an agent-based model simulating astronaut interactions for the Artemis IV and V missions. The model uses an Agent_Astronaut framework with cognitive, emotional, and personality traits to explore factors affecting mission outcomes.

Use Cases

• Simulating long-term psychological well-being outcomes based on the Agent_Astronaut framework with cognitive and emotional states.
• Evaluating operational resilience and team structures for lunar missions based on modeled social and environmental interactions.
• Analyzing trade-offs between productivity and psychological well-being using results from tens of thousands of Monte Carlo iterations.

Strengths

• Model is based on literature from proxy environments like Antarctica and past space missions, aiming for a 'highly probable representation'.
• Simulations consist of 'tens of thousands of iterations', providing a basis for statistical analysis.
• The dataset is licensed under CC-BY-4.0, allowing for open reuse.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset is very small (5.5 KB), indicating limited scope or complexity.
