About this listen

Hector is a rat with a dream to venture where no rat has been before. The future of the cheese crisis is in Hector's paws. An epic adventure story with a timely message about poverty and diversity all based on a true life story.

Rats in Space is based on true events.

Can one rat truly become a rastronaut and win the heart of Felicity whilst learning to fly into space and save the rat population forever?

Fact: The first rat in space came in February 1961 when France launched Hector the rat. After flying to a height of 93 miles in to space, Hector was successfully recovered.

Made for audio and narrated by David Keogh.
