	Sergey Korolyov - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sergei was informed by his mother that his father had died at the time, and only later learned that Pavel had lived until 1929.
		Korolev was not given a trial, but was beaten by his captors and a "confession" was thus extracted.
		Korolev's group was also working on ambitious programs for missions to the Mars and Venus, putting a man in orbit, launching communication, spy and weather satellites, and making a soft-landing on the Moon.

	Korolev, Sergei Pavlovich (1907-1966)
		Korolev spent months in transit on the Trans-Siberian railway and on a prison vessel at Magadan, followed by a year in the Kolyma gold mines, the most dreaded part of the Gulag.
		In September 1953, Korolev proposed the development of an artificial satellite to this committee arguing that the R-7-launched flight of Sputnik 1 would serve as a powerful public demonstration of the Soviet Union’s ICBM capability.
		Korolev’s legacy is the town named for him and Energia Rocket & Space Corporation (RCS Energia) — the modern Russian business organization that evolved from Korolëv’s design bureau - which built Mir and is now a partner with NASA in the production of the International Space Station.

		Not that Korolev was rehabilitated: politicians don't like admitting their mistakes, so Korolev stayed under house arrest in Moscow even as he set to work designing and testing liquid-fuel rocket boosters for aircraft.
		All this was quite enough to spare Korolev a return to the gold mines: he must have proved his value during the war years, and now he was put in charge of the Soviet missile programme.
		Korolev, like his rival Wernher von Braun at NASA, considered the man in the capsule to be merely a passenger, taken along for the ride by a safe and automatic system.

		Korolev, on his return from Germany, was made chief designer of the R—1 missile, the Russian clone of the V—2.
		As one of Korolev’s colleagues put it, “He, one of the first pioneers of rocket technology in our country, had to drink a full cup of humiliation as a prisoner and to learnthat some of his own ideas had already been realized, and that German rocket men had gone farther than his most ambitious plans.
		Korolev would not be ready, though, to put up his bird until after his R—7, in its fifth attempt, sent the dummy H—bomb some 6,000 km to Kamchatka, on August 21, 1957.

		While Korolev's superiors were only interested in the military applications of this new technology, Korolev and his closest colleagues always had the dream of spaceflight in the back of their minds.

		As Korolev himself was counting down the final minutes to launch from a bunker 100 meters (330 feet) from the pad, a lone bugler briefly appeared on the concrete apron to blow a long series of trumpet blasts.
