Laika died in Sputnik 2 due to overheating and stress. The spacecraft's life support systems were inadequate, and it became too hot for her to survive after just a few hours in orbit. Despite her significant contribution to space exploration, her death highlighted the ethical concerns regarding the treatment of animals in scientific research.
The dog on Sputnik 2, launched in 1957, was named Laika. She was the first animal to orbit the Earth, providing valuable data on the effects of space travel on living organisms. Tragically, Laika did not survive the mission, but her journey contributed significantly to our understanding of space exploration.
The second living thing sent to space was a dog named Laika. Laika was a Soviet space dog who became the first animal to orbit the Earth aboard Sputnik 2 in 1957. Unfortunately, Laika did not survive the mission.
LAIKA was the first dog to go out of the space
The first non-human animal to fly on Russia's Sputnik 2 was a dog named Laika. Laika was a stray dog found on the streets of Moscow and became the first animal to orbit the Earth in space in 1957. Unfortunately, Laika did not survive the mission.
No, Sputnik 1 was the first artificial satellite to orbit Earth, and it did not carry any animals on board. This Soviet spacecraft was launched in 1957 as part of the space race between the United States and the Soviet Union.
Laika entered Sputnik 2
The dog, Laika, died due to temperature increase.
The name of Laika's spacecraft was Sputnik 2. She was the first living being to orbit the Earth in this spacecraft in November 1957.
Laika the space dog, of Sputnik II died November 3, 1957, most likely due to overheating as a result of a malfunctioning heater in her capsule.
Laika the dog!
Laika of Sputnik II died due to overheating as a result of a malfunctioning heater in her capsule.
November 3th 1957, launched on Sputnik 2(not to be confused withKorabl-Sputnik 2.) Laika was the first animal in orbit also the first to die in orbit.
A dog called Laika.
Yes
The unique thing concerning the Sputnik 2 (compared to previous Sputnik 1 satellite) was the fact it carried the first living being into other space - a dog named Laika. "Laika" translates to English as "Barker".
Sputnik 1 only housed some electronics, while Sputnik 2 held a dog called Laika.
Laika actually did not travel on an American Space Shuttle, but rather on a Russian satellite called Sputnik 2. Sputnik 2 (with Laika in it) was launched on November 3, 1957 from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Russia on top of an R-7 rocket.
