Have you watched Space Chimps?
Who's your favourite chimp?
In outer space, an unmanned, intelligent life-searching NASA space probe, Infinity, is dragged into an intergalactic wormhole and crash-lands on the other side of the galaxy. It lands on the Earth-like alien planet named Malgor, populated by colorful alien beings. Zartog (Jeff Daniels), an evil-minded inhabitant, accidentally discovers how to take manual control of the onboard machinery and uses it to enslave the population. Faced with the possible extinction of Infinity and their budget, the scientists hire multiple chimpanzees as astronauts to regain contact with the probe and retrieve it: technical genius Comet (Zack Shada), lieutenant Luna (Cheryl Hines) and commander Titan (Patrick Warburton). For media attention, the Senator (Stanley Tucci) adds to the team Ham III (Andy Samberg), grandson of Ham, the first chimpanzee in space, who works as a cannonball at a circus. Ham III is uninterested in the mission, but he (along with the other space chimps (except Comet)) is launched into space despite his best efforts to escape the scientist's training facility.

This is a film for crack-heads seriously........

IDK about that but something called "Captain Simian: and the Space Monkeys" which took references from "Quark" ( pre-dates "Starwars" but after "StarTrek" ) or even "Mom and Dad saves the day" or even "Galaxy Quest"



The series "Captain Simian" basically had "Quark" like crew, but in the case of the first "chimp" in space was your antagonist not your father. If you swap places you have the same characters.

Never heard of Space Chimps. Captain Simian seems vaguely familiar, I wonder if I watched that as a kid. There were multiple "humanoid animals in space" type shows in the 90's, so it's tough to remember. Looks cool anyway.
