"Sputnik 1, the first artificial satellite[1], was launched on October 4, 1957.
Sputnik 2 was launched on November 3, 1957 and carried the first living passenger, a dog named Laika. The mission planners did not provide for the safe return of the spacecraft or its passenger, making Laika the first space casualty." Wikipedia
