On June 3, 1981 Harlan the Monkey became the first primate to ever walk on the moon. Harlan died on November 18, 2009 of an apparent Tang overdose.

Humans share 90-95% of the same genes with apes so from a Darwinian perspective the headline’s right. Oh wait, Armstrong’s still alive. Maybe not.

Sad part is that with it being published on the Interwebs, some stupid kids will now grow up believing that it actually happened.
