Ivan Kleimenov, Soviet scientist
Ivan Kleimenov (1898-1938), Soviet rocket scientist and aerodynamics engineer. Kleimenov led RNII, the Soviet jet-propulsion research laboratory. It investigated both solid- and liquid-fueled rockets as a means of propulsion of missiles and planes. In 1938 Kleimenov was killed in one of Stalins purges

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the brilliant mind of Ivan Kleimenov, a renowned Soviet scientist who made significant contributions to the fields of rocketry and aerodynamics. Born in 1898, Kleimenov led RNII, a prestigious jet-propulsion research laboratory in the Soviet Union during the early 20th century. With unwavering determination, he delved into both solid- and liquid-fueled rockets as potential means for propelling missiles and planes. His groundbreaking work paved the way for advancements in modern propulsion systems that we benefit from today. Tragically, Ivan Kleimenov's life was cut short by one of Stalin's purges in 1938. This devastating event not only robbed him of his future accomplishments but also deprived humanity of an exceptional scientific mind. In this monochrome portrait, we see a distinguished Caucasian man with an air of intelligence and purpose. His piercing gaze reflects his commitment to unraveling the mysteries behind rocket science and pushing boundaries within aeronautics. As we contemplate this image captured by Science Photo Library, let us remember Ivan Kleimenov as a visionary engineer whose legacy lives on through his invaluable contributions to physics and engineering. May his story serve as a reminder that even amidst adversity, human brilliance can transcend time and inspire generations to come.
