I'll bet you could spin it. something something transitory something something extrasolar something something standby something something. Pay rent on a pad at Vandenberg, keep a Delta IV heavy handy, lob the fucker at whatever looks interesting. You could probably make the Space Force pay for more than half of it as a "rapid response" demonstrator or some shit. Doesn't have to be manned, can be nuclear (chicks love nuclear), give it a logo involving a bicep and a lightning bolt, sneak it into an omnibus spending bill. Space Force will bacronym it into "High Apogee AutonoMous Rover" (HAAMR) and dipshits will post 3d builds of it on Thingiverse.
