In Cambridge on April 13 AP reports Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory director Fred L. Whipple explains Sputnik II, with the dead dog Laika, has streamlined in flight due to atmospheric drag. He notes the tumbling craft may have fallen earlier but now glides with minimal air resistance, likening the tail to guiding the rocket like an arrowhead.
