Laika was a stray Moscow dog, the first living creature to orbit Earth aboard the Soviet Union's Sputnik 2 spacecraft on November 3, 1957, proving that life could survive launch and weightlessness, but her mission was one-way, and she died from overheating hours into the flight, sparking animal rights concerns despite the knowledge gained for human spaceflight. 

Laika was built on the River Clyde in 2011 she is a wide beam dutch barge.
