The dog Laika (Лайка), was the first alive animal in orbiting the Earth. She did it in the Soviet Sputnik 2 on the 3/11/1957, a month after the first satellite Sputnik 1 was put into orbit.
Like other animals in the sapce, Laika died betwen five and sevent hours after the lunch, long before it was planned.
