Space monkeys
Space monkeys. Female researcher watching rhesus macaques during training for the Soviet-American Bion space programme. The monkeys are being made accustomed to having their movement restricted, as is the case during spaceflight. Two of these monkeys were aboard the Cosmos 1667 mission from 10-17 July 1985. They were sent to investigate the physiological changes that occur during spaceflight, as well as to study their response to radiation exposure. Also onboard were rats, newts, insects and plants. Photographed in 1985 at the Institute of Medical and Biological Problems, USSR Ministry of Public Health, Moscow, Russia

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the Soviet-American Bion space program. A female researcher stands attentively, her eyes fixed on a group of rhesus macaques undergoing training for their upcoming mission. These monkeys are being prepared to face the challenges of spaceflight by becoming accustomed to restricted movement, just as they would experience during their cosmic journey. In July 1985, two of these remarkable creatures were chosen for the Cosmos 1667 mission. Their purpose was twofold: first, to investigate the physiological changes that occur in living organisms during space travel; and secondly, to study their response to radiation exposure. Alongside them on this groundbreaking voyage were rats, newts, insects, and plants - an eclectic mix of species contributing to our understanding of life beyond Earth's atmosphere. The photograph was taken at the Institute of Medical and Biological Problems under the USSR Ministry of Public Health in Moscow. It serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge and exploration beyond our home planet. As we gaze upon this image from 1985 with awe and curiosity, it reminds us that scientific progress knows no boundaries or borders. The collaboration between nations transcends political differences as we strive together towards unraveling the mysteries that lie within outer space itself.
