taxi Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 PETA is pissed: http://www.peta.org/...ce-program.aspx If the original monkey died and was replaced by a second monkey, PETA will go nuts. Pics: That "astronaut seat" is ridiculous. It looks like something a 3rd grader would assemble in art class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sam13371337 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 they are 2 different monkeys from 2 different launches. the first monkey with the mole was launched in 2011 (and unfortunately parished) the second monkey was launched just recently and came back alive. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/iran-blog/2013/feb/03/iran-space-monkey the original confusion came from the iranian media releasing both pictures of the monkeys without any explanation. and a single british newspaper saw a quick opportunity for a story and without any investigation ran a "story" on it that was quickly spread by other media groups. the slow explanation still has not gotten through fully it appears. just on common sense alone; this conspiracy theory doesnt make any sense. If iran wanted to pull a switcharoo~ it would know that it's going to come under immense scrutiny. it would not pick 2 completely different looking monkeys (they are different colors, and one has a distinguishable mole on his face) they would probably find 2 identical monkeys for the job.
