Miss Baker: The Space Faring Squirrel Monkey Miss Baker, a brave squirrel monkey, was one of the first animals launched into space by the United States and she returned safely. She lived to the remarkable age of 27, becoming the longest lived squirrel monkey. Today, her tombstone is often adorned with a banana or two, a sweet tribute to her adventurous spirit. #SpaceAnimals #MissBaker #WildlifeHistory #AnimalHeroes
