Academician Keldysh Square

Academician Keldysh Square is geographically located at the intersection of Obruchev Street and Trade Union Street. The square was established in 1978. Its modern name was given in memory of the great Soviet mechanics and mathematician Keldysh Mstislav Vsevolodovich, who was the head of some space programs. A memorial plaque to this scientist is installed on the building of the Institute of Space Research of the Russian Academy of Sciences. At the moment, the trolleybus movement is organized along the square, and not far from it is the station of the Moscow metro "Kaluga".
