''[[Space Chimps]]'' was a 2008 [[All CGI Cartoon]] movie about astronaut chimpanzees sent on a mission to outer space. It was produced by [[Twentieth Century Fox]].
In the movie, a NASA space probe called "Infinity" that was sent to look for life in other planets falls trough a wormhole and lands on the planet Malgor. A Malgorian called Zartog then uses the Earth vehicle to force his people to obey him, on threat of being dipped by its robotic arms into a substance that turns them into living statues.
Meanwhile, a US Senator decides to have the have the wormhole studied, but in order not to expose humans to the wormhole's possible dangerous effects, they decide to instead send the chimpanzees that they have been training. The chimps (who didn't know that their training was purely a show to entertain tourists; humans cannot understand what they say) are elated. However, the Senator wants more publicity for the event, and forces Ham III, the grandson of Ham, the first chimp in space (in real life as well) to join the mission against his will. The group is composed of: Titan, a large, boastful male chimp; Luna, a female, wise one, and Comet, a young one who is an expert with technology. Comet is forced to stay on Earth since Ham was given his seat. Ham starts hitting on Luna, who dislikes his immature attitude, and Titan is mocked openly by Ham.
