3. THE PATH IS OPEN FOR HUMANS (1960) The next poster focuses on two of the dogs - Belka and Strelka - sent into space by the Soviets ahead of the first human missions. Scientists were edging closer to manned space flight, but more animals would make the journey first. The launcher was classified, so was the spacecraft - all the poster designers had to go on were the dogs. The poster features a stylised rocket, with clear Soviet symbols - a red star, plus hammer and sickle. It is being held by a strong Slavic looking working class man, with big bare hands.
