Yes, because the space shuttle was NASA's space transportation system. It carried astronauts and cargo to and from Earth orbit. The space shuttle carried as many as seven astronauts at a time to and from space. It launched satellites and served as an orbiting science laboratory.
Laika launched on a sattelite named Sputnik 2 in 1957. The first Space Shuttle was launched in 1981. Sputnik 2 was an 1,100 pound ball which contained a small compartment for Laika to live in. The Shuttle is many times larger and contains room for a full crew of astronauts to conduct experiments, deliver sattelites, and work on the space station.
