EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Space-Sputnik II" takes us back to a historic moment in astronautics. Presented by the Soviet embassy in London, this combo picture captures the awe-inspiring launch of the Soviet spacecraft Sputnik 2 on November 3,1957. The Baikonur cosmodrome in Kazakhstan serves as the backdrop for this monumental event. Sputnik II holds a significant place in space exploration as it carried an extraordinary passenger – Laika, the first living being to journey into outer space. However, tragedy struck shortly after liftoff when Laika succumbed to stress and overheating within hours due to a malfunctioning thermal control system. The panoramic view of this photograph allows us to witness the sheer power and magnitude of rocket lift-off as it propels Sputnik II towards uncharted territories beyond our planet's atmosphere. It serves as a poignant reminder of humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge and advancement. As we gaze upon this image captured by Agence France-Presse (AFP), we are reminded that scientific progress often comes at great costs. This hauntingly beautiful photo noir et blanc encapsulates both triumph and heartbreak within its frames - symbolizing mankind's indomitable spirit while also acknowledging the sacrifices made along our journey into space
