**Featuring Félicette, the First Cat in Space**

Since the 1940s, a menagerie of non-human animals have journeyed to outer space – flies, frogs, cats and mice. This audio story looks at the creatures that have left our atmosphere. From spiders in zero gravity to jellyfish in orbit – join us as we discover the unwitting spaceflight participants who made it back to Earth, those that didn’t, and the animals who received a heroes welcome and became national icons. Notwithstanding the ethical questions inherent in these endeavours, it makes for a piece of interesting history.

Sometimes, truth is stranger than science fiction.
