Space chimps 2

Ham, the space chimp! 🐒

On January 31, 1961, Ham the space chimpanzee made history after blasting off hundreds of miles into low Earth orbit inside a Mercury capsule. Before NASA could send humans into space, they used animals as test subjects to determine whether or not a human could perform tasks or even survive miles above the Earth’s surface.

This photo, submitted by NASA to the Senate Committee on Space and Astronautics, captured the image of Ham stretching for an apple after landing safely aboard the capsule. More than just a passive rider, Ham readily performed a series of learned tasks on his journey proving that humans would have at least a limited functionary capability in space. One apple seems a pittance for Ham’s great contribution to the Mercury project and human space flight. Nevertheless, he seemed glad to have it!

Director Wes Ball seems to have laid to rest one of the growing theories surrounding the human companion of Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, Mae. After seeing her dressed in more sophisticated clothes than the rags other feral humans of her century wear, many fans began to wonder if Freya Allan's character was a time-traveling astronaut, following in the steps of Charlton Heston and Mark Wahlberg. However, in a recent interview, Wes Ball elaborated that space and astronauts have a different place in future sequels.

"This [fascination with space] is in the DNA of the movies. That's what we touch on, essentially. There's more to come. If we're lucky enough, there are more ideas to come in two and three. From the very beginning, space is obviously a huge component of this thing - but I am not saying there are time travelling astronauts in this movie. There's none of that, but it's an idea in the movie for sure."

This seems a pretty clear put down of the Mae as an astronaut theory. Wherever the mysterious human with strange clothing comes from, it does not appear to be from space.

Ball is clearly leaving the door open for those missing Icarus astronauts from Rise to an appearance. Personally, I would not be surprised if there was an after credits scene in Kingdom where Noa looks up to see a space shuttle shooting across the sky. Perhaps it is spied in the telescope that Mae and Noa look at in the trailers. I'm certainly glad that this new movie will be trying to go in a different direction than the original Planet of the Apes film, and am excited to see what makes Mae 'smarter than most' of her fellow feral humans.

I don’t care about Katy Perry. I care about them.

and all the other animals who died and/or were forced to risk their lives for real space trips.
