To prepare for human flight animals were sent to space. The US used monkeys & chimpanzees. The USSR used dogs, famously 'Laika' in 1957. Far less known: the Soviets sent up 41 dogs. 22 died. One ran away just before launch. She was replaced by a stray wandering by the canteen.

While most of us enjoy a sunny bank holiday, vaccination operation at Ealing Town hall continues apace - all day shifts every day throughout long weekend to ensure none of this precious stuff expires.

It was so good to talk. I LOVED the book and couldn’t wait to speak to you. Half an hour is a decent wedge of time in radio but it wasn’t nearly enough. Hope the book does well. It deserves to.

Thinking about today's #starship #spacex #launch and the prospect of a #Mars base becoming ever closer. The vision of #ElonMusk reminds me of the genius #Soviet #rocket engineer Sergei #Korolev who sent #Gagarin into #space and dreamed of settlements on Mars. In 1961. #Beyond
ALT Yuri Gagarin with the secret Soviet space chief Sergei Korolev in 1961. The CIA never discovered Korolev's identity in his lifetime.

March 26 1961. Sixty years ago today, a top secret #Soviet commission reports that after the successful dummy dress rehearsal flight a human #cosmonaut will launch from #Baikonur between April 6 and 15. The #spacerace for the first human in #space is on. #Beyond #rocket #gagarin

Small rant. Why is this government so hopeless over the issue of wearing facemasks in shops? For how much longer will they vacillate? Where is the clarity and leadership? Wearing a mask in shops should be mandatory. Full stop. We are led by donkeys #facemasks

Bulb flowers can create a perfect hotspot for Aspergillus, a drug-resistant fungus that, if inhaled, can cause severe damage to the respiratory health of someone with a compromised immune system. Could humble tulips harbour a secret killer? mol.im/a/6974103 via @MailOnline

Congrats to @SpaceX on the launch of Falcon Heavy and Arabsat-6A from historic pad 39A at @NASA Kennedy Space Center.
President Kennedy said we do these things "not because they are easy, but because they are hard".
