Serge Shavirin

Shortly my biography can be described as follows. In 12 years, I enrolled in astronomical circles of the Moscow planetarium, where studied astronomy for four years, mainly interested in cosmology and problems of extraterrestrial civilizations. I graduated from the School 179 with advanded studies in Physics and Mathematics located a few hundred meters from Red Square.

After graduating from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology I had served two years in the army as lieutenant of Strategic Nuclear Missile Forces. My service was held at the division, located at the region currently ocupied by new cosmodrome Vostochny. After returning from the army, I worked for several years at the Institute of General Physics, Academy of Sciences. Then I enrolled in graduate school at a university in Massachusetts, USA, where I continued to study physics for another two years. After that, I worked for UNYSIS Corporation and then at the National Center for Biotechnology Information, a division of the US National Institutes of Health as systems analyst. After a small conflict with my wife, I was forced to leave the US and return to Moscow.

After that, I devoted all my time to favourite hobby - studying and analyzing history and literature, mostly Russian. I recently wrote two books. First, "Do not make an idols", devoted to the history of Russia of the XIV century and my hypothesis about Sergius of Radonezh. Second, "Beyong Pushkin" is a detailed study of all the poet’s work . Now I mostly interested in books of Dostoevsky.
