1971 Ondina : Tu mejor amigo, el perro #50 - Laika

Laika (Лайка, "Curly") was a mixed-breed stray dog found on the streets of Moscow, Russia. On November 3, 1957, Laika became the first animal to orbit the Earth, travelling aboard the Sputnik 2 spacecraft. Laika died from overheating after the third orbit, about 5–7 hours into the mission. The card and album text incorrectly state that Laika was euthanized. The Sputnik 2 spacecraft reentered the atmosphere on April 14, 1958.
