To the right of Laika's portrait appears a small stylized depiction of a rocket or spacecraft. The Cyrillic legend 'СПУТНИК-2' curves along the upper right field, while '50 лет космонавтики' arcs along the left rim and the dates '1957-2007' appear along the lower rim, commemorating the fiftieth anniversary of spaceflight. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Sputnik 2 launched on November 3, 1957, carrying the dog Laika — the first living creature to orbit Earth. Soviet authorities never planned for her return. The capsule had no re-entry mechanism, and Laika died within hours from overheating, though Soviet officials maintained for decades that she survived several days. The full truth wasn't acknowledged until 2002.
Mongolia's enthusiasm for Soviet space commemoratives reflects the country's deep political alignment with the USSR through the Cold War period. This issue appeared fifty years after the mission.
