This is the epic journey of Laika, a humble street dog that travelled into space within a tiny capsule and entered the hall of fame as the first living being in orbit. However, a dark shadow looms over this heroic-sounding journey as Laika was never meant to return home alive. Amidst the race to space, greed drove the decision to not guarantee her save return. This sparked a vivid debate on the ethical treatment of animals and created Laika’s legacy that forces us to reflect on the price of progress to this day.
