Animals in Space

In the earlier days of space exploration nobody knew if humans could survive a space trip, so scientists decided to send animals instead of people into space. In 1961, 1) when NASA launched U.S. Mercury spacecraft, American scientists sent Enos, a chimpanzee, into space to see if it could survive the take off and landing. While the chimpanzee was in flight, it ate, drank and performed all the tasks 2) that it had been trained to do. At the same time the scientists 3) who were on Earth monitored his behaviour. Enos survived the space voyage, 4) which involved making two complete orbits of the earth. Other experiments involved sending mice into space. Scientists 5) whose work involved research into the effect of zero gravity wanted to determine whether weightlessness would confuse the animals. Would floating instead of walking affect them? Surprisingly, within 5 minutes the mice floated happily around their living quarters. They were able to adapt very quickly to the new environment, 6) where they ate and groomed themselves just as they did on Earth. These experiments prepared the way for human space flight.
