Russian cosmonaut-test pilot, Hero of Russia Sergei Ryazansky has become an ambassador for the developer and manufacturer of computer equipment, Aquarius. Sergei Ryazansky is the world's first scientist to become a spacecraft commander, having completed two flights with a total duration of 305 days, as well as four spacewalks with a total duration of 27 hours and 35 minutes.
He worked as the crew commander in the Mars-500 ground isolation project and was awarded a NASA certificate for his personal contribution to the Bion-11 international project.
The collaboration plans include Sergei Ryazansky's interaction with the company's development team and his participation in the company's daily marketing activities. Aquarius is counting on an honest, open, and unconventional view of a scientist-biologist on Russian developments.
«Usually, ambassadors are chosen whose values and achievements are similar to the values and achievements of brands. Sergei Ryazansky is in many ways a pioneer and researcher, similar to our company. He is a person with a broad perspective, like the engineers in our Development Centers. And he has the exceptional courage to do what others cannot. Perhaps it is at these points of coordinates that our basic values intersect,» commented Irina Konovalova, Vice President of Marketing at Aquarius.
«Aquarius is the oldest Russian company for the production of IT equipment. Like me on my path to space, Aquarius has gone through many difficult periods and trials that have been overcome. I think it is important to support a company that develops IT technologies in Russia and promotes the education of schoolchildren, students, and young professionals,» said Sergei Ryazansky.
The first joint event of Aquarius and Sergei Ryazansky will be the session «Creativity vs. Development in Innovation» at the IV Congress of Young Scientists in Sirius, which will be held in Sochi on November 27-29.
Earlier, the company reported that it became one of the two Russian brands whose logo was applied to the outer surface of the Soyuz MS-26 launch vehicle's head fairing during the launch from the Baikonur Cosmodrome.
