prime apes ( other than homo sapians ) smile when they’re aditated or stressed as a form of showing agression

That is horrible and why did he spend 20 years along that wasn’t right. Very disappointed in nasa . And chimps shouldn’t have been used that’s like sending a kid in space by themselves. Rip Ham

Yes, it was Enos that was shocked numerous times and still performed his duty 100%. My father was his veternarian and this article leaves out how attached the officers and NCOs became to the animals. As a kid I remember going to visit the chimps and giving them apples, oranges and bananas when we lived in New Mexico. We visited Ham several times at the Zoo in Washington D.C.

Buddy, you know those pills and band aid you take every time you visit the pharmacies? Thousands of rats died to make sure that its safe for human consumption. You know all these food products and candy bars you see on the shelf? Tested on animals as well. All these household cleaning products? Test on animals. But wait, you’re gonna tell me that you only buy CFC products? Good for you. However, these companies are only able to make their product CFC because other companies HAVE tested their ingredients on animals to make sure they are safe for humans. You think any of those lab rats or rabbits gave their consent?

Please stop with this whole animal first bullshit. It’s getting really fucking old.

However, that animal deserved to live a life of luxury upon his return to earth. He should have been treated like the hero he was. I see a lot of people arguing against animal testing, and I understand their point of view. But how would it be okay for things to just be tossed at humans without seeing if it’s safe first? What if the scientific community decided they have a good idea and just “test it out” on the general public? What if there were terrible side effects, and YOU were the guinea pig?
