Answer:

1. On October 4, 1957, the Soviet Union became the country that officially started the so-called space race by launching the Sputnik 1, the first Earth satellite in history.

2. A month after the USSR sent Sputnik 1 into space, they sent Sputnik 2, which was the first spacecraft to carry an animal (a dog named Laika) and so the country made history again by becoming the first to successfully send a living organism into orbit.

3.However, something that many people don’t know about this dog is that despite the Soviets initially claiming that Laika had survived in orbit for a week, decades later official Russian sources revealed that Laika lived only a few hours before dying from overheating.

nydimaria [60]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Carefully examine this photograph of a home bomb shelter. Fearing a nuclear attack, many people put these in their homes during the 1950s. What kinds of things did this homeowner think to include?

Answer:

Food, water, flashlights, batteries and some furniture that could promote minimal comfort.

Explanation:

In the 1950s, fearing possible nuclear attacks, many people invested in building bomb shelters in their homes. This would guarantee the family's survival if a bomb threat was real. However, it took more than the shelter to guarantee survival and for that reason, it was common for people to put survival items inside shelters like food, water, lanterns, batteries and some things that could guarantee a minimum of comfort such as beds, chairs , reading material, games, among others.
