Not a picture but a video. Finally an on topic reason to talk about cats in a spaceflight themed forum.

First laser transmitted ultra HD video from space (that is, sent through the space based laser comms test bed) is of a cat.

talk about cats in a spaceflight

Speaking about minorities in space, canines (Laika) actually beat simians into space, if I have my facts neatly marshaled?

But about space-faring felines, I know next to nothing.  Why not and, why, for example, has not a Bengal Tiger or, for that matter, a regular puddy-tat  not entered orbit, hmm?

Frankly, I am appalled.  Our priorities are all kinked, it seems...

Oh, wait!  I might have taken a comment out of context...?

This one, Commander Busby, has already done some capsule training:

Funny you say this: First cat in space: how a Parisian stray called Félicette was blasted far from Earth

Félicette was euthanized two months after the launch so that scientists could perform a necropsy to examine her brain.

What were these sadists going to find in her brain after just a several minute long flight?

Disgusting and unforgivable.

More unforgivable is that the CERMA has killed several more cats in similar way.

Don't worry you get way larger cats, not elephant but Godzilla sized ones.

For some reason its lots of images and videos about model railways with cats in them. 

Will use this explaining why train is late next time it is who is probably tomorrow. 

And it looks like its an nice backstory for this

Not the first image as its an much larger scale model train who makes the cat only elephant sized.

I bought a model train set recently. I'm still working on some stuff to display around it (also in N Scale) but I'll have to post pictures here if my cat attacks it.
