Only 12 years from sputnik to the first man on the moon, I still have a hard time to believe it.

Laurelelf, there was quite a bit of protest about the killing of Laika even back then.I apologize, I think I deleted your reply about your school class. I meant to "reply" and hit "remove". I don't see a way to undo that.

I hate to be the one to tell you, but Laika did die, a few hours after entering orbit. There was no plan for her to return alive.Later, on Sputnik-5, two dogs were sent into orbit and returned alive. That was on the Vostok spacecraft, testing it a few times before sending a man.

I'm not a crazy animal rights type person, but the dog really didn't have a choice, and could have died.
