It does not contain missions failed before launch like this one:
- 3 September 2016 - Amos 6
It also does not contain in-flight abort tests like this one:
- 19 January 2020 - Falcon 9 - Crew Dragon In-Flight Abort Test

First outer space flights
I have just updated this section with further details of the MW 18014 German V-2 rocket test and removed the 1949 Bumper-WAC launch. Not sure why NASA is saying that the Bumper launch was the first object in space, all the other sources say the V-2 was the first object in space. Happy to discuss his point with other Editors, however rhe evidence is pretty clear that the V-2 was the first. I also updated the photos. Ilenart626 (talk) 02:24, 11 July 2022 (UTC)

Laika
Why is Laika not even mentionned in the space exploration page ? it's the first being to have been in space right ? I don't understand why sacrificing an innocent animal is not even mentionned. 86.31.42.155 (talk) 12:22, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for your suggestion. When you believe an article needs improvement, please feel free to change it. We encourage you to be bold in updating pages, because wikis like ours develop faster when everybody edits. Don't worry too much about making honest mistakes—they're likely to be found and corrected quickly. You can always preview your edits before you publish them or test them out in the sandbox. If you need additional help, check out our getting started page or ask the friendly folks at the Teahouse. - DVdm (talk) 12:37, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, several animals need to be mentioned, including Laika (btw, the first large animal is space was Albert II (monkey), in 1949, a page I started awhile ago). And agreed that you could sign up with a user name and add them in. Some of us could do it, but for an editor to be this concerned that the animals need more coverage, frankly, we need you to edit! and more fully address legitmate and historically accurate concerns.
