I’m sure someone has talked about this before but in the episode “Planned Obselescence” when Mr. Peanutbutter is in the car and Diane is on the radio. They bring on a Russian cosmonaut named Laika. She’s the one who discusses Planned Obselescence. She is introduced as the first woman in space. Laika is the dog that the Russians actually sent up into space in the 60’s. I love this show’s little details.
Just in case you are curious:
In 1963 Valentina Tereshkova became the first woman to journey to space orbiting Earth in the Vostok 6 space capsule.
Tereshkova spent almost three days in space during her solo mission.
She remains the youngest woman to fly to space, the only female astronaut or cosmonaut to make a solo space journey, and the first civilian to journey to space.
Very cool. Thanks for the info
