		It was for the first time in the world that not only a pilot but also two other cosmonauts whose tasks were to carry out technical and medical research and experiments were onboard a spaceship.
		That engineer was Konstantin Feoktistov and his offer was not mere words – he was to become a “Voskhod” crew member.
		However, the cosmonauts did receive all the honours they deserved : Komarov, Feoktistov and Egorov became Heroes of Soviet Union; postage stamps, envelopes and cards devoted to their flight were issued by the Ministry of Communications of the USSR.

		Soviet cosmonaut Konstantin Feoktistov, who was the first cosmonaut-scientist in the world, and is also a professor, answered that Soviet cosmonauts were sent on their missions according to a predetermined order.
		Feoktistov said that of the two crew members Leonov, who was a co-pilot to pilot Pavel Belyayev, probably was chosen to space walk because he was the stronger of the two.
		Feoktistov said in general people, mainly pilots, who were willing and were selected to become cosmonauts, had to have good health and be psychologically strong.

	The Partnership - ch3-5
		According to Konstantin Petrovich Feoktistov, the details for mockups and breadboard models of Vostok were worked out and then built during 1959.
		The problem centered on the proper orientation for retroengine firing, a difficulty that was worked out by the time the fourth and fifth test missions were flown in March 1961.
		Feoktistov indicated that a round of technical discussions led to major changes in the spacecraft during September-December 1960.

		Feoktistov and a few other colleagues worked out some preliminary ideas for a manned orbital spacecraft and showed these to Korolev, using the fact that one of his deputies, Bushuyev, was on holiday.
		Korolev gave Feoktistov the task to prepare a more detailed paper on his ideas for a manned orbital spacecraft.
		Of course national priorities would favour the reconnaisance satellite, but Feoktistovs group had worked out a plan by which the manned spacecraft could be easily converted into a reconnaisance satellite by ripping out all the unnecesary equipment for manned spaceflight.

	Voskhod
		On the first, three seats were squeezed into a converted Vostok, giving their occupants no room to wear spacesuits — a life-threatening gamble in order to mount the first three-man mission.
		(A similar gamble during the early Soyuz program ended with the death of a crew after the cabin depressurized.) The Voskhod 1 cosmonauts, who included Konstantin Feoktistov and Boris Yegorov, the first scientist and physician in space, respectively, and Vladimir Komarov, spent a day in orbit five months before the first Gemini mission.
		Feoktistov earned his berth through having figured prominently in the design of Vostok, and its transformation into Voskhod.

	voskhod 1 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		This was necessary because, unlike the Vostok, the crew lands with the Voskhod descent module.
		On board were three cosmonauts: Vladimir Komarov, who piloted the craft; Konstantin Feoktistov, an engineer who had been part of the Sputnik and Vostok design teams; and Boris Yegorov, a doctor.
		Much of the mission was devoted to biomedical research and to study of how a multi-disciplinary team could work together in space.

	Core module of the Mir space station (17KS)
		Two months after the core was launched, Konstantin Feoktistov, the veteran of the Soviet space program gave many hints about the new station's design in the interview to Izvestia.
		(88) In particular, Feoktistov said that in the future during further deployment of the station, there would be a possibility to employ new systems, which would considerably save onboard propellant.
		Feoktistov also hinted that the core module could be equipped with additional solar panels and that more effective life-support systems are installed onboard.

	[FPSPACE] Feoktistov position in mid-1985? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		According to "Who's who in space" he was forced to retire in 1990 after Semyonov took over from Glushko as general designer of NPO Energiya (Feoktistov had apparently been too outspoken about the Buran programme, which he considered a waste of money, and Semyonov happened to be the chief designer of Buran).
		I think that in 1985 he still had a high position within NPO Energiya (perhaps you should check the Energiya 1946-1996 book).
		What I've found is that "Feoktistov" is derived from the christian name "Feoktist", which in turn is a russification of the Greek name "Theoktistos" (literally "created by the gods").
