Roscosmos

Isaev designed Soviet rocket engines (used on Soyuz and Vostok-family spacecraft) before Roscosmos existed; recorded against the modern successor of that design tradition, founded 1992.

Kerimov founded and chaired the Soviet State Commission for human spaceflight before Roscosmos existed; recorded against the modern successor of that program, founded 1992.

Tikhonravov designed the first Sputnik and early Soviet spacecraft concepts before Roscosmos existed; recorded against the modern successor of that program, founded 1992.

Keldysh served as chief theoretician of the Soviet space program before Roscosmos existed; recorded against the modern successor of that program, founded 1992.

Pilyugin designed guidance systems for Soviet rockets, including the R-7 and Soyuz, before Roscosmos existed; recorded against the modern successor of that program, founded 1992.

Chief designer of the Soviet space program that Roscosmos institutionally succeeded; Korolev died in 1966, decades before Roscosmos was established in its modern form in 1992.

Afanasyev headed the Soviet ministry overseeing the space program before Roscosmos existed; recorded against the modern successor of that program, founded 1992.

Glushko directed the Soviet space program until his death in 1989; Roscosmos was not established until 1992. The edge names the modern successor agency rather than a defunct Soviet body with no live entity here.

Flew under the Soviet space program that Roscosmos institutionally succeeded.

Barmin designed Soviet rocket launch complexes before Roscosmos existed; recorded against the modern successor of that program, founded 1992.

Flew under the Soviet space program that Roscosmos institutionally succeeded; Gagarin's 1961 flight predates the 1992 establishment of Roscosmos in its modern form.

RKA (Russian Aviation and Space Agency) is the historical name for the agency this atlas models as the continuous Roscosmos entity.

Mir spans the 1991 handover: operated first under the Soviet space program from its 1986 launch, then by Russia's Roscosmos (renamed from the Russian Federal Space Agency in 2015) after the Soviet Union's December 1991 dissolution, through deorbit in 2001. This link is kept and names the post-1991 operator; a separate operated-by link to the Soviet space program names the pre-1991 one.

The Progress cargo spacecraft is Roscosmos's ongoing uncrewed resupply vehicle, currently servicing the International Space Station.

Soyuz spans the 1991 handover: the spacecraft family was designed for and first flown under the Soviet space program from 1967; following the Soviet Union's December 1991 dissolution, Roscosmos (renamed from the Russian Federal Space Agency in 2015) continued to develop and fly Soyuz, and still does. This link is kept and names the current post-1991 operator; a separate operated-by link to the Soviet space program names the original one.
