HISTORY WAS MADE ON THIS DAY IN 1957

AWESOME SPACE TIMELINE OF AWESOMENESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! timeline | Tim

The Soviet Union launched the first animal to orbit the earth
into space—a dog nicknamed Laika—aboard the Sputnik 2
spacecraft.

Laika (above) part Siberian husky, lived as a stray on the
Moscow streets before being enlisted into the Soviet space
program.

Laika survived for a few hours as a passenger in the USSR’s
second artificial Earth satellite, kept alive by a sophisticated
life-support system.

Electrodes attached to her body provided scientists on the
ground with important information about the biological
effects of space travel. She
died from overheating and
panic.

The scene at Dunbar High School November 3, 1964 as
District of Columbia residents line up for their ballots
in a Presidential election.

On November 3, 1964, residents of the District of Columbia cast
their ballots
in a presidential election for the first time since 1800.

The passage of the 23rd Amendment in 1961 gave citizens of the
nation’s capital the right to vote for a commander in chief and vice president. They went on to help Democrat
Lyndon Johnson defeat Republican Barry Goldwater in 1964, the next presidential election.
