Vanguard Animation’s ‘Space Chimps’ is rocketing its way onto DVD and Blu-ray on November 25th from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment and Starz Media. Space Chimps centers on the story of Ham III, the grandson of the first chimpanzee in space, who is recruited to join two NASA chimps, the fearless Lieutenant Luna and the uptight Titan, on an important mission to retrieve a wayward craft. However, things get a little hairy when they find out that they were sent on a space ship with no plans to return to earth. Ham III has to muster the courage and channel his inner chimp to get them home, while saving the peaceful inhabitants of a distant planet from their evil dictator.
