Meritorious Service Cross (civil division)
One of the six Canadian astronauts chosen to work with the 1992 Spacelab Mission, Major Money worked on experiments with the International Microgravity Laboratory as backup astronaut and Spacelab operations radio communicator. His earlier research contributed to advances in alleviating the problems of motion sickness and pilot disorientation in flight, providing valuable information for later investigations into space adaptation.
