Laika's Dream

Studio 360 | Jan 11, 2011

A month after Sputnik went up, the Soviets launched Sputnik 2, with a very famous passenger: Laika, a mutt from the streets of Moscow. She never made it home. The writer John Haskell has this tribute, part fact and part fiction, to the canine cosmonaut. Produced by Pejk Malinovski.
