Did a dog named Leica reach the moon or did she die before that?
No, Laika did not reach the moon and was not supposed to.
Liker's identity is not with the first. Leica was a quiet dog that grew up on the streets of the Soviet Union. And the first animal to go into space is this dog named Leica.
Sputnik-2 mission in 1956. The main goal of this mission was to send a dog into space. Scientists wanted to see how weight loss affects living things. Scientists deliberately selected Laika for this mission because she was a street dog and had a greater ability to survive in hostile environments. And he was calm.
Scientists began training to send Laika into space. He was kept in a small cabin for 20 days so that he could adapt to such an environment. His training is done.
The Sputnik-2 rocket was also prepared for him. But scientists knew he would never be brought back to Earth. Because at that time technology could have taken space but it was not known how to come back. He was given oxygen and food for 7 days. According to the plan, he will die after 7 days due to lack of oxygen. But his death was not so happy at all!
