Today we live in a world where there is almost everything a person could want. But it was not always so. Mankind has long and painstakingly created such conditions. It is difficult to imagine that people used to do without the modern benefits of civilization. Russia, of course, is the locomotive of progress. Every person in our great country should know about its achievements and be proud of them. This is our dignity, heritage and history.
Light bulb and radio
The scientific achievements of Russia are valued all over the world, as they have made a huge contribution to the development of the civilization of all modern mankind. Among them there are those that we know about from school, but there are known mainly in narrow circles (and their value is no less).
Today there is an electric light bulb in every home, but it was not always so. The first light bulbs were lit thanks to the Russian engineers P. N. Yablochkov and A. N. Lodygin (1874). Their original inventionwas not recognized at home, and they were forced to develop their ideas in a foreign land. Of course, it took scientists a lot of time and effort to create a small lighting device. The American Thomas Edison made a significant contribution to the improvement of the lamp, but Russian scientists were the first to create it!
Radio is the achievement of Russia, thanks to the brilliant physicist and electrical engineer Popov A. S. (1895). It is very difficult to overestimate the importance of radio in the history of mankind. Abroad, the championship of Alexander Stepanovich is often disputed, but there are facts confirming this. By the way, the invention and the contribution of the professor were immediately recognized in Russia, for which he was awarded.
Airplane and helicopter
Russia's achievement and the contribution of her husbands to the development of modern aviation are of a breakthrough nature. Russian military leader and inventor Mozhaisky A. F. For decades, he was ahead of his Western associates in the creation and successful use of an aeronautical vessel. In 1876, he was the first in the world to fly comfortably on a kite he created, a little later he introduced the world's first steam-powered aircraft (1882).
The greatest aircraft designer Sikorsky I. I. adds to the list of "Great Achievements of Russia" with his inventions. His fate was such that he was forced to immigrate to the United States, so the Americans are also proud of the results of the work of this brilliant designer. Igor Ivanovich was the first in the world to create a four-engine aircraft (1913), a heavy four-engine bomber and a passenger aircraft (1914),transatlantic seaplane and single-rotor helicopter (1942). It is worth noting that he embodied his last ideas in the USA, although the inventor had a very difficult time there.
Russian scientists are the engines of progress
Technical achievements of Russia are inextricably linked with such inventors as Polzunov I. I. and Kostovich O. S.
I. I. Polzunov glorified himself and his fatherland by creating a steam engine and the world's first two-cylinder steam engine (1763). There was practically no limit to the variety of applications of the steam engine, these inventions shook the world.
It is believed that the first internal combustion engine belongs to G. Daimler and W. Maybach. But this is not entirely true, a little earlier (in 1879) O. S. began to develop a gasoline engine. Kostovich. The engine was part of his inventions: an airship, a submarine, etc. He was the first to design a model of a multi-cylinder engine, a sample of which was also taken as the basis of modern devices. By the way, the birthplace of Ogneslav Stepanovich is Astro-Hungary, but he is considered to be Russian inventors, since he lived and worked here.
Inventions of scientists go beyond the planet
Genius people devote their lives to science and inventions, so great achievements appear. Russia, of course, should be more careful about people whose innovative ideas, work and faith in success drive the world's technological progress. So, S. P. Korolev, one of the best scientists in the field of space rocket and shipbuilding, was arrested and tortured.
Under the leadership of Sergei Pavlovich, Russia was the first in the history of mankind to launch an artificial earth satellite (1957). A little later, the Luna-2 station for the first time in world history took off from the Earth and stopped at another space object, marking its flight with the pennant of the Soviet Union on the Moon (1959). This space breakthrough raised the prestige of the USSR throughout the world.
Scientific achievements of Russian scientists
In Russia there have always been people whose works and conclusions forced science to develop rapidly. The scientific achievements of Russia, without which the world cannot do, appeared thanks to the following scientists:
- M. V. Lomonosov (1711-1740) was the first to formulate the principle of conservation of matter and motion, discovered the atmosphere on Venus and made a huge contribution to glass production. The versatility of Mikhail Vasilievich is amazing, his discoveries still resonate in scientific circles.
- N. I. Lobachevsky - brilliant mathematician, "father" of non-Euclidean geometry.
- D. I. Mendeleev. Many people associate Russian science with the creator of the Periodic Table of Chemical Elements (1869).
Russia is rich in scientists who have made a huge contribution to the development of science and various areas of human life.
Course - saving human lives
Not only the achievement of Russia, but also the colossal success of scientists around the world has allowed medical communities to take a big step in providing medical care.
Russian scientist-experimenter was the first in the world to perform a transplant operationlungs, liver, heart (1951). Demikhov Vladimir Petrovich created the world's first model of an artificial heart. His experiments (two-headed dogs in 1956) still do not fit into the heads far from science, but the benefits of his work go through the years.
M. A. Novinsky is known to the medical community as the founder of experimental oncology. A veterinarian vaccinated animals against malignant tumors (1876-1877). Russian geneticist N. P. Dubinin proved the splitting of the gene (1930).
Culture of Russia
Our fatherland is famous not only for discoveries in medicine, science and technology, the cultural achievements of Russia are also known throughout the world.
The most famous figures in different areas of culture and their achievements:

Modern achievements
Russia has always been a world power. Our great country has long held, retains or returns leadership in many areas. How many breakthroughs have been made in science, technology and culture throughout the history of the country! But even today Mother Russia has not become poor in talents. The inquisitive mind, fantasy, craving for beauty and the determination of our compatriots glorify the country with amazing and useful discoveries.
Russia's modern achievements bring not only recognition to figures and the country, but also significant financial incentives.
List of the most significant achievements of Russia in 2014:
1. WinterOlympic Games in Sochi (hold).
2. Scientists from St. Petersburg have developed a unique projectile-plasma generator, which made a splash in the oil business around the world.
3. The new diesel fuel, which was developed by Russian scientists for the military, is frost-resistant (there are no analogues with such indicators in the world yet).
4. Scientists from St. Petersburg have developed a portable device to restore blood circulation in the body. The principle of operation is similar to that of an artificial heart. This one-of-a-kind device will be installed in ambulances and save millions of lives.
This is just a short list of cases that Russia is rightfully proud of. This list does not include achievements in such areas as sports, politics, education, the military, and much more. Many great people are not forgotten: Gagarin Yu. A., Kalashnikov M. T., Nesterov P. N., Kruzenshtern I. F. other. It's nice to live in a country where all the great achievements and talented people are difficult to collect in a small list.
The most important achievement of Russia
Here is only a small part of the success in the scientific and cultural fields of the country, significant events that make the world respect Russia.
But what is the most important achievement of Russia? Throughout history, there have been so many great discoveries that have driven the development of all mankind, but what can be considered a priority?! The answer is obvious.
The most important achievement of Russia, its pride and strength are talented people who love their country.
