Vladimir Dezhurov

Russian cosmonaut

In the history of technology, Vladimir Dezhurov is one of the names that keeps returning.

The record lists Vladimir Dezhurov as Russian cosmonaut.

Vladimir Dezhurov was born at Yavas in 1962. His recorded nationality is Russia.

Modern careers are conducted in public and at speed, with reputations formed and revised far faster than the work itself changes.

The record gives his occupations as astronaut.

Technical work compounds - each layer makes the next one cheaper to attempt.

His work was formally recognised with the Hero of the Russian Federation, Order "For Merit to the Fatherland", 4th class and Medal "For Merit in Space Exploration".

That the work was done from Russia matters. Opportunity has never been evenly distributed, and where a person is based shapes which doors open and whose work gets seen.

Vladimir Dezhurov is still at work, and the final assessment has not been made - the ordinary condition of a living career.
