In the history of technology, Vladimir Dzhanibekov is one of the names that keeps returning.
The record lists Vladimir Dzhanibekov as Soviet cosmonaut.
Vladimir Dzhanibekov was born at Iskandar in 1942. His recorded nationality is the Soviet Union. He was educated at Tashkent Suvorov Military School and Saint Petersburg State University.
The twentieth century made work collective, expensive and political, with consequences that reached well beyond the people doing it.
The record gives his occupations as aircraft pilot, astronaut and politician.
His affiliations include Tomsk State University.
Technical work compounds - each layer makes the next one cheaper to attempt.
The honours are a fair index of how the work was received - Commander of the Legion of Honour (1982).
That the work was done from the Soviet Union matters. Opportunity has never been evenly distributed, and where a person is based shapes which doors open and whose work gets seen.
Vladimir Dzhanibekov is still at work, and the final assessment has not been made - the ordinary condition of a living career.
