      We already did, and it was tragic, and they learned nothing.

        How did you conclude that nothing was learned?

            They got extensive data on launch, low gravity, and much of re-entry.

              Read it again. They state that they learned nothing useful from euthanizing the cat and operating on it.

                Right. So. Much was learned, just not from doing an autopsy on the cat.
