Cat Flight A Possibility
By Marcus FitzGibbon

After years of hard work British Scientists have finally found a workable solution to the problem of cat flight.
Since just before Roman times people have been trying to find ways of launching cats high into the air and often allowed themselves to dream of the day when an unmanned cat may even land on the moon.
| "Galileo had plans to mount a telescope near the back of a cat so that he could prove his ideas about the shape of the world." |
Surprisingly Leonardo da Vinci was not at all interested in cat flight and did not sketch a number of ‘cat flying vessels’ in his journals and numerous notebooks. In one sepia-toned page a detailed diagram of a ‘floating cat harness’ and propeller attachment with dimensions and copious notes is noticeably absent.
In 1852 The Royal Society proclaimed that Feline Flight was impossible and
‘an [unmanned] cat would never get higher than a tall building or longish pole’.
