I sure hope they were declawed.

So which space program produced these? Those don't look like USAF unis to me (but I could be mistaken).

Of course, to the kitties, "whichever way the feet point, is down".

It was noticeable that they stopped trying to turn after the first go. I don't think this proved quite what the experimenters thought it proved.

No idea - my guess would be Russian.

Yup. There's a NASA film I've seen (not sure which country made this one) that shows a cat reacting much more violently to free fall. Can't seem to find it, unfortunately.

Given you can't get more than 20-30 seconds of free fall in that sort of flight it isn't surprising that they didn't adapt - it would be interesting to see how they coped in a proper space flight.

But my point is that they did. That they thought, "hang on a second, the floor is below me, why should I turn?"
