| Additional information |
Mstislav Keldysh served as president of the Soviet Academy of Sciences from 1961 to 1975 and was the unnamed "chief theoretician" behind the Soviet space program — a designation kept secret during his lifetime while Korolev was the hidden "chief designer." Transnistria's ongoing commemorative rouble series in nickel-plated steel has systematically worked through Soviet-era scientific and cultural figures, issuing these pieces well into dates that exceed the current calendar year at time of cataloguing, suggesting pre-authorized mintage programs released in advance.
