226: Space Animals

10/08/2225 22 minutes

Dirk kept today's topic a secret for Simon, so it's not just you, the listener, who gets to be surprised. But yes, there are animals in space. Because… why not? If they can survive on land, in the ocean and in the sky, then why not in space? It's just that humanity only discovered the first species after we started exploring and colonising the solar system. We'll highlight some of the species today and thanks to a listener email, we also learn about 'our' Spotify playlist (testsfromthefuture.com/spotify). Pretty cool!
