Cosmic Paws NFTs Remember Dogs in Space as Collectible Canine Heroes

"Exactly 70 years ago today, the first attempted flight to space carrying two such dogs returned them both safely back to earth, while other launches resulted in canine deaths. Nearly 100 dogs have been to space from different programs, and in 1957, Laika (nicknamed a “Muttnik” in reference to her being mixed-breed and the first spacecraft, Sputnik) became the first living being to die orbiting the earth. Laika’s involuntary act of courage is commemorated with Cosmic Paws, a generative art collection of NFTs celebrating the illustrious history of dogs in space." Ray, Micah.
