Ham the chimpanzee photographed in his space suit which was fitted into the nose cone of the Mercury Redstone rocket
Ham became the first chimpanzee in space on 31 January 1961. He reached an altitude of 157 miles and speed of 5857 mph, during which he was weightless for 6.6 minutes. Ham was apparently only slightly fatigued and dehydrated after his ordeal
Just chillin’.
That Ham… what a ham.
