That would probably be the second hero I learned about in Kindergarten

It is quite disappointing how little is said about Gagarin in western society, like it is insignificant, yet in real terms probably more significant than the moon landings.

Was Laika your third hero Andy?

[Ecthy]

Gagarin and Jähn rule, though I don't even know whether Jähn was the first foreign one...

Laika? nah... Ernst Schneller!!!

Too true. We joke about how the Soviets claimed to have invented everything, but then we ignore their greatest accomplishments. Such hypocrisy.

btw..if you happen to be russian. Everyday is worth getting drunk

Nice trolling.
But you are wrong. A usual day is not worth enough to getting drunk for us. We drink only to celebrate major dates, like French revolution’s date or the fishermen’s day or women’s day or Army’s day or *whatever*-day.
So, we only drink at celebrates, we don’t drink at common days.

Ah… almost forget, when we are dry, we usually do some unimportant things, just for our fun, like launching first man in space or launching first probe to Venus or building first Nuclear plant or inventing something unimportant like Laser, that sort of things. We are doing such things only because we feel bore between drunken parties.

May be by Laika he mean Belka and Strelka- first dogs launched in space. We used dogs as test animals while US used monkeys for this purpose.

Nothing interesting really.

Well I was always told that the first dog in space was Laika, launched by the Russians...
