Today in history: Dog becomes first creature sent into space

On Nov. 3, 1957, the Soviet Union launched Sputnik 2, a one-way, history-making trip for a dog named Laika. » Full Story on USATODAY.com

I wonder if Rosie O'Donnell had to wear a spacesuit or would that impede her incessant licking of the windows?

And Eisenhower, one of our more progressive presidents, responded by increasing funding in education, expanding science education in the US. The net result a decade or so later---the tech boom. Good job, Ike. More presidents like him, fewer like Bush.

Snoop Dog was a brave, brave man to take that step. And who would have thought he'd end up with a successful music carreer. A versatile and amazing talent.

I don't believe she ate, but she did drop a big, stinky "Cleveland Steamer".

That dog died a horrible death. I can only wish that the people responsible for such an evil act be given the same consideration. They really messed up killing that animal in the interest of science. I hope america would never consider such a stubid adventure. No life should be worth research unless you volunteer. 1957 murderous flight of a bunch of red neck soviet sh-t heads. Pin some medal on that you soviet idiots.
