The safeguarding of Earth and other worlds from biological cross-contamination (i.e. billionaires with too much time on their hands).
Also known as “planetary protection.” Planetary protection / quarantine “reflects both the unknown nature of the space environment and the desire of the scientific community to preserve the pristine nature of celestial bodies until they can be studied in detail.”
There are two types of interplanetary contamination. Forward contamination is the transfer of viable organisms from Earth to another celestial body. Back contamination is the transfer of extraterrestrial organisms, if such exist, back to the Earth's biosphere.

Billionaires are having a dick swinging space race while the earth experiences record breaking heatwaves that cause sea creatures to literally cook inside their shells. We need planetary quarantine.

Shovel Hands is a derrogatory name given to a person (usually male) with notably large and indelicate hands. Shovel Hands is the opposite of Piano Hands...which is only used to describe those with large, but delicate, hands.
Shovel Hands could, for example, be used to describe the hands of Lennie in Steinbeck's 'Of Mice and Men'
