Hospital mascot, not Disney rabbit, floats on Axiom-1 mission as zero-g indicator

A longed-eared toy dog was briefly mistaken for a famous Disney rabbit on Friday (April 8) when it was revealed as the "zero-g indicator" aboard the first private mission to visit the International Space Station.

"Caramel," the mascot for the Montreal Children's Hospital Foundation, was seen floating inside SpaceX's Crew Dragon "Endeavour" shortly after the spacecraft entered Earth orbit with the Axiom-1 (Ax-1) crew. With its ears extended out and a cartoon look to its embroidered eyes, the brown and beige plush puppy looked a lot like a certain bunny.
