Ham El Astronaut
One day like today but from 1961 when he had not yet reached the age of four, the chimpancé known as No.65 became the first protagonist of the Mercury Project when he was launched on his first mission on a suborbital flight. The objective of Mercury was to put the first human being in Earth orbit. During the training, the primate was taught that when a blue light came on she should perform a lever. If he failed, an electric shock was applied to him at the soles of his feet, while if he did it correctly he received a piece of banana.
On 31 January 1961, it was launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida, and made an approximately 16-minute flight, returning safely to Earth.
In the image you can be seen moments before carrying out the mission. Upon his return, he was re-baptized as Ham, which, according to reports, had not been done before for fear that the mission would fail and the public impact on the death of a chimpancé identified with a name would be greater.
The launch of the first spring into space was very close in time to also controversial launches of astronauts in the USSR, such as Laika or Belka and Strelka, among others. After his space adventure he was transferred to a zoo, where he died at the age of 25.

A nurse writes down the last words of a dying soldier, 1917 Seen here is a nurse writing down the last words of a British soldier during World War I. WWI lasted 4 years from 1914 - 1918, with many historians agreeing that 1917 was the worst year of the war. Nurses played a vital role during the war, as they helped troops recover from their injuries and helped them to get back to the battlefield Nurses also comforted mortally wounded soldiers. Some soldiers suffered from different psychological disorders due to their time being exposed to a combat zone, including anxiety disorders, depression and battle fatigue, which is now known as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, which was a condition that was not acknowledged at the time. Before World War II, WWI was known as "The Great War". It is infamous for its brutal and almost eerie nature.
