	Russian space dogs - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		During the 1950s and 1960s the USSR used a number of dogs for sub-orbital and orbital space flights to determine whether human spaceflight was feasible.
		Dogs that flew in orbit were fed a nutritious gel.
		This spaceflight of record-breaking duration was not surpassed by humans until Skylab 2 in 1974 and still stands as the longest space flight by dogs.

	Public Open Space and Dogs
		Dogs have not been considered separately by open space planners - their needs have been assumed to be part of the overall need for passive open space.
		For dog owners we need to recognise that their needs are likely to be very different depending on stage in the life cycle, housing type, inclination, etc.
		The most effective way to accommodate dog owners' needs, taking into account these existing constraints and incompatibilities, is to aim for a hierarchy of opportunities throughout the municipality that provide dogs and their owners with daily, regular and occasional opportunities.

		Laika was one of the Russian space dogs and the first living passenger to enter orbit on Sputnik 2, a Soviet spacecraft.
		To adapt the dogs to the confines of the tiny cabin of Sputnik 2, they were kept in progressively smaller cages for periods up to 20 days, placed in centrifuges that simulated the acceleration of a rocket launch and placed in simulators that simulated the noises of the spacecraft.
		A plaque commemorating fallen cosmonauts was unveiled at the Institute for Aviation and Space Medicine in Star City, Moscow in November 1997, and in one corner of the plaque there is an image of Laika.

	SPACE.com -- Canine Constellations: Night Sky Goes to the Dogs
		Sirius, the "Dog Star," is the brightest star of the constellation which bears the Latin name Canis Major -- the Greater Dog.
		The brighter of these two stars is the "little Dog Star," known as Procyon, the eighth brightest star in the sky.
		It is the equivalent of the Latin word "Antecanis" or "Before the Dog," an allusion to the fact that Procyon rises about 20 minutes before Sirius (at midnorthern latitudes), and thus heralds the appearance of the great Dog Star.

	Richard Lowenstein
		The most notable examples of this are Dogs In Space, in which music operates as the central plot-structuring device of the film, and He Died With A Felafel In His Hand, which includes a number of songs that Lowenstein wrote his script around.
		Lowenstein's second feature film, Dogs In Space, was set against the backdrop of Melbourne's late '70s punk rock scene, and placed its focus on the young, inner city world of the shared household: a melting pot of hippies, addicts, student political activists, and punk musicians.
		Evictions, Strikebound, Dogs In Space and He Died With A Felafel In His Hand are all rife with the discourse of difference, and the subculturally hybrid Dogs In Space household exudes a particular dissatisfaction with the essentially conservative mores and values of Australian society.
