If I remember correctly, before her flight, one of the scientists took Laika home and let her play with his children. To give her a sense of a normal life, as she was just a stray dog they had found.
Comic Strips
Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

It sounds cruel, but that's how the Soviets treated their cosmonauts and ground personnel too. As expendable.

Thanks, I love that sort of dark kindness (or kind darkness) and ~~you have~~ the artist has a great style.
Edited after OP pointed out it's not OC.
This is not OC, sorry for the confusion.
I added [Not OC] to the title, I usually do it when the sub in where I’m posting are mostly OCs posts. I thought it was implied here.
Don't be sorry. I assumed it was OC but did not really make any effort to check.
it feels touching in a unique way.
My two brains are warring. "Technically Laika didn't..."
"Shut the hell up it's a beautiful sentiment"
Wow. I rarely comment on things, but this comic is stunning. Thanks for sharing!
Laika is a good space grim. https://i.imgur.com/3FnLB5o.jpeg

TIP: You can embed images with this format:
![](image_URL)
Double tip: add a caption to your image like this:
![caption](image url)
No thanks, easier to click and the visible URL is handy on mobile.
Could you not though? Images taking up most of my screen real estate isn't exactly enjoyable.
One solution would be to wrap embedded images with spoilers:
see image
That would be preferred, personally. Or a setting on Lemmy to automatically collapse the images. This was a setting on RES for Reddit, but it's probably not a pressing issue for the Lemmy devs right now.
Normally I would correct something like this, but I'll let it go just this once
My god, this comic is heartbreakingly beautiful
This is absolutely stunning.
Thanks. I really enjoyed this
Thank you Laika! Your service is greatly appreciated!
This is beautiful.
There are plenty of legends of human church grims
