Although Laika never returned, later mission included 2 dogs named Belka & Strelka, who orbited Earth in 1960 & also they returned back safely.

The TV show "Space Dandy" has a very heartwarming episode where the main characters encounter Laika on some random world in the far reaches of the galaxy and become friends with her. The closing narration of the episode essentially states that they can't know that Laika survived and that someone out there in the universe found her, but that it's a nice thing to imagine.

There is an artist who makes comics about little brave Laika as if she is still up there and orbiting the earth

The Sun greets her every morning, she meets interesting aliens, and she is so loved 🥺

The series is called Good Girl Laika by J Marshall Smith (@jmarshallsmith on instagram)
