	the hardest one for me was the one whose name suggests he would be used for a space mission, you know like a ______ ____.

	Couldn't slip in a Star Trek IV reference in there, even in the hidden answers? C'mon!

	Isn't a bit cliche to send a guinea pig up for an experiment? ;)

	Why not "human"? The use of "man" to refer to the species as a whole seems pretty old-fashioned at this point.

	A number of monkeys were sent into space. Monkeys are not apes.

	Haven't monkeys been sent into space? I could have sworn some squirrel monkeys and rhesus macaques had been.

	@Alwendil and Theron: absolutely correct. Rhesus mokeys, squirrel monkeys, and macaques have all been sent into space in addition to chimpanzees. The quiz should absolutely differentiate between monkeys and apes.

	Curious George!

	I was struggling with one answer left to get. Then the image of Captain Bucky O'Hare came into my head. Thank you 80s/90s TV!

	Why are humans so low on this list? And please be more specific with apes, since humans are primates as well.

	I'm waiting for them to send Elephants into space.

	No bonus for Pigs in Space! It was a Muppett show classic.

	Does this mean that the cow did not really jump over the moon?

	Hasn't a chimp been up there? It's not a monkey... it has no tail, for one.

	Okay, humans are mammals, but when i was thinking of random mammals i didnt classify them as that

	I hope I wasn't the only pillock who wasted half the time trying to spell "Laika" before realising what was actually required. D'oh!

	AracleMiraz:	May 28th, 2013 at 22:40 GMT		8 points
	@fruitbat: At least you weren't trying all the different variations of "fruit fly" before realising they only wanted mammals. :P

	Aiwendil:	May 28th, 2013 at 22:53 GMT		21 points
	It looks like the quiz was 'fixed' by simply changing 'ape' to 'monkey'. But of course, it's still not correct, since now it omits the chimpanzees that have been in space (chimpanzees are as different from monkeys as humans are).

	Thank you, potternerd, finally someone agreeing!

	cheesyjon:	May 28th, 2013 at 23:14 GMT		4 points
	Oh yeah... humans... :P

	No giraffe??? NASA (and all other space agencies) you do disappoint!

	Forsaken04:	May 29th, 2013 at 03:25 GMT		2 points
	Humans are apes, so typing ape should bring up humans not monkey.

	NaGfH:	May 29th, 2013 at 03:54 GMT		7 points
	I was having too much fun typing "whale, possum, capybara, wolf, tiger" to get rabbit and guinea pig.

	There was probably a cockroach too, we just didn't know.

Comment below threshold: show it

	Its quite worrying to see that 35.5% of people didn't guess their own species.

	If you can milk a spider, they will include it as an answer. Spiders are not mammals.

	@ akalex, how do you know if those who didn't get human are human or not?
