A 1961 confectionary tin with a portrait of Zvezdochka / The text reads, "Zvezdochka." / [***]

Zvyozdochka (Zvezdochka, Звёздочка, or "Starlet"), who was named by Yuri Gagarin, made one orbit on board Korabl-Sputnik 5 on 25 March 1961 with a wooden cosmonaut dummy in the final practice flight before Gagarin's historic flight on 12 April. Again, the dummy was ejected out of the capsule while Zvezdochka remained inside. Both were recovered successfully. / [***]

The 3KA-2 or Vostok 3A-2 capsule, which flew into space on March 25, 1961. This mission, called Korabl-Sputnik 5 by the Soviet press, carried a mannequin and a variety of biological payloads, including a dog named Zvezdochka. It was the last unmanned flight of Vostok before Yuri Gagarin's flight on April 12.

This capsule was at the Omniplex museum in Oklahoma in 2004 when I saw it. In 2011, it was sold at an auction in New York City for $2.9 million. It is now back in Russia.
