Spacecraft 3KA No. 2 (Vostok-3A No. 2) was the final test flight, lasting one orbit - a dress rehearsal for the first piloted space flight. Korabl'-Sputnik-5 was launched on 1961 Mar 25, a few weeks before Gagarin. It carried a second cosmonaut-simulator and a dog. The dog Zvezdochka was recovered safely in the sphere.
