It would be awesome if the Monkey came back down with Cross of David when they removed from the capsule.
FYI, the monkey had to die. This is Iran, they can’t refine their own oil.

Poop-flinging space monkeys. The latest in Muslim technology.

Iran launches a rocket and may have sent a live animal to the edge of space. And may have recovered that animal still alive.
Western private industry has sent humans to the edge of space, orbited a space vehicle and rendezvoused that vehicle with another orbiting man made object.
Yeah, fear the Iranian space monkey.

Oh yeah, this week marks the anniversary of all three of the American space tragedies.
cozmo on January 28, 2013 at 4:40 PM
I would have much more impressed if they had sent the little iran worm into space.

They’re not really space monkeys. They’re brine shrimp.

Maybe he’ll defect?

Western interest in space is dead and buried except for a few ventures that nobody will be able to afford. We haven’t so much as put a monkey in orbit for decades.
A few footprints on the moon and some lunar-dusted equipment is just about all that remains to show that we were once the best. And Iran doesn’t NEED to get to the moon…just around Earth.

Yeah? Well we got a Space Cowboy. His name is Maurice.

You left out all the folks the US orbited in the shuttle, and that wasn’t decades ago.
Why would anybody nowdays want to put a monkey into space? other than propaganda.
When Iran can put a satellite into geosynchronous orbit, get back to me.
The race now is to build a truly cost effective launch vehicle. There is no non-US competition.
Oh, and at this point, Iran can’t get a payload around the earth.
cozmo on January 28, 2013 at 4:52 PM
That is not a happy-looking monkey.
trigon on January 28, 2013 at 4:55 PM
I can’t wait for their shiny new, high tech transistor radios and 8 track players!!
Opposite Day on January 28, 2013 at 5:01 PM
Spacemonkeys!
tbrosz on January 28, 2013 at 5:04 PM
They only have to get the payload to Israel and Europe.
RickB on January 28, 2013 at 5:32 PM
He does have that look of profound resignation.
Nobody wants to be the first monkey in the Iranian space program.
Also, I thought it was going to be dinnerjacket. So disappointed.
TexasDan on January 28, 2013 at 5:53 PM
Then they are going about it wrong. They know that. Other governments know that. Its just the newsies and low information types (though I repeat myself) that are getting their panties in a wad over this.
