Episode description

In 1957 a stray dog was rescued from the streets of Moscow - and then strapped to the top of a rocket and sent into space!

She died :(

But she paved the way for the rest of us to reach the stars, so that's nice!

Hannah Carle joins the Wholesome Show today to tell Rod and Will about the animals who've gone to space!

The Wholesome Show is Dr Will Grant and Dr Rod Lamberts, joined today by Hannah Carle from ANU's Research School of Biology! Proudly brought to you by The Australian National Centre for the Public Awareness of Science!
