Zhukovsky
First of all, some history:
The town is rather young. It was founded in 1947. Its population is about 100.000 people but it is well known in this country and abroad as the centre of aviation and the centre of Rescue services of Russia. In the 30-ies the Government decided to develop Soviet aviation. The Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute named after Zhukovsky was transferred from Moscow to this remote place. The settlement of Stakhanovo grew fast and in 1947 received the status of the city. It was named after Nikolai Yegorovich Zhukovsky, the father of Russian Aviation.
