      Everybody knows about Laika, the first dog launched into space. Few people know she was followed by two other dogs, Shara and Subscriba.

      Those animals at CERMA… I can’t even say their names… murdered Félicette.

      Classic Fr*nch move. Hero feline back from space? Kill it and take it’s brain

    4. We don’t talk about her because it’s horribly depressing. I can’t talk about my sadly passed-away cat without getting upset, what makes you think I can discuss Fėlicette?

      I mean. They’re no Yolande of Aragon, Queen of 4 Kingdoms who drove the English out of France (I mean, Charley 7 used her armies, her funds, and her court and shit kind of fell apart when she retired from Court. She also found, sponsored, and funded Joan Du’Arc and also it was her appointed generals who supported Joan and gave statements about her supposed tactical genius. Just saying it was the Maid of Aragon before it was the Maid of Orleans).

      Stolen from Wiki:

      > While some non-human animals which traveled in space were celebrated as heroes—the chimpanzee Ham was buried at the International Space Hall of Fame in New Mexico, U.S., and the Soviet dog Laika has a bronze monument at the Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center, near Star City in Russia—more than 50 years after her mission there was no monument for Félicette. Then, in 2017 a crowdfunding campaign was started by Matthew Serge Guy to erect a bronze statue of Félicette to commemorate her contribution to science.
