Contest Directions:
Russia celebrated the 50th anniversary of the launching of its two national heroes into space this month. They were dogs named Belka and Strelka. On August 19, 1960 these dogs became the first living creatures to circle the Earth and come back alive and pushed Russia into the lead in the space race. Russia successfully launched the first human into space - Yuri Gagarin a year after this dog manned flight. Many animals were sent into space in the next fifty years by several countries…..even frogs. The true pioneers of the final frontier were really animals like the dogs…..despite the early human heroes such as Yuri Gagarin and John Glenn. Today we salute them!
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the first animals in space, photoshop anything related to space exploration by animals. E.g. show how space exploration history would be different if animals explored space instead of humans, photoshop animal astronauts, etc. All animals - living, extinct, or even mythical are accepted for this contest (except for humans)!
