Meet The First Monkey In Space
On June 14th, 1949, the male rhesus macaque monkey known as Albert II was strapped into U.S. V-2 sounding rocket and blast to an altitude of 83 miles, or 134 kilometers, above the Earth. He became the first primate and first mammal ever to go into space. Unfortunately for Albert II, his return ticket did not go as planned. A parachute failed during re-entry and the original mammal pioneer of space exploration died on impact. In the last half of the 20th century, humans continued to send all manner of animals into space in the name of science. And there’s no getting around the terrible sacrifices they made along the way. We have all of them to thank for the knowledge we have today about the final frontier. #space #tech #science
