## Caption

In memory of Laika, who became the first living being to orbit the Earth #OTD in 1957 (and died the very same day). More than 30 years after Laika launched—facing certain death—Russian scientist Oleg Gazenko, who worked on the project, expressed regret for her treatment: “The more time passes, the more I’m sorry about it.”
