Biography:

He was born on September 24, 1945 in Leningrad city of Leningrad region of the Russian SSR in the family of a serviceman.

After graduating from the secondary school in Vasylkiv city of Kyiv region of the Ukrainian SSR, during 1963-1966 he studied at the Technical University of Radio Electronics in Kyiv. During the production practice at the Main astronomical observatory Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR, the leadership of the specialists carried out the modernization of the "Promin" computer. After graduating from technical school he was sent to work at the Main astronomical observatory Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR. He also entered the Polytechnic Institute, where he studied without interruption from production.

In 1972 graduated from 50th anniversary of the Great October Socialist Revolution Kyiv Order of Lenin Polytechnic Institute, specializing in "electronic computers".

Working in the Main astronomical observatory Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR, in the calculating laboratory he initially held the position of calculator, then he was a senior mechanic since August 1966, since March 1968, a mechanic mechanic, since December 1967 a engineer, since August 1971 a senior engineer since April In 1975, a bunch of computer science and automation, from November 1979, the chief of computer.

Beginning official work in Main astronomical observatory Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR he served the computer "Promin", and since 1969 also machine "Rudazan-2", later also machines "MIR-1", "MIR-2"

Since 1974, he was a member of the Union for the Automation of Scientific Research at the Presidium of the Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR, and led the creation of a system for automation of automatic research in accordance with the Program of the most important works is the ANP Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR.

During 1984-1985, using a subsystem of automation of the solar telescope ATSU-5 conducted a series of observations. The created system of solar telescope automation was marked with a bronze medal of the USSR Exhibition of achievements of the national economy.

He carried out work on the analysis and calculation of the forces of oscillators of rare earth elements on the Sun, completed a two-year cycle of observations of selected lines of REE and using the automation system.

In June 1986, he was transferred to the position of scientific collaborator of the laboratory of MOAN.

In 1991 he defended his candidate's dissertation "Hardware and software complex for spectral observations of the Sun" at the Main astronomical observatory Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR.

In January 1992 he was appointed as the executor of the duty of the chief of the polling center and responsible at the Main astronomical observatory of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine for the work on automation within the program of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine.

At the end of January 1994, he retired from the Main astronomical observatory of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. He continued to work at the International Center for Astronomical and Medical-Ecological Studies of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine.

Since the end of 2006, he participates in the project "Ukrainian Synchronous Network of Internet Telescopes", organized by the Main astronomical observatory of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Taras Shevchenko Kyiv National University and other astronomical institutions of Ukraine.

In 2003, among his accomplices, he was awarded the State Prize of Ukraine in the field of science and technology for the cycle of research "Development of theoretical foundations and a unique observation base in Goloseev and at the peak of Terskol for the research of the Sun and the bodies of the solar system".

He is also a member of the Terkskol branch of the Institute of Astronomy of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
