I’ve moved to Barcelona almost a year ago. I’ve been living in Republic of Georgia for almost a year.
Barcelona
October 6th, 2024 by Ivan BoldyrevSitting at home
April 8th, 2020 by Ivan BoldyrevI work from home for many weeks. Our employer has sent us home since middle of March…
Spending whole day at same place is bit frustrating, I only go to food store every other day.
The weather in Saint-Petersbourg is quite good today, and streets are not so empty as previous days.
I’m back again. Or not
March 27th, 2020 by Ivan BoldyrevUpdate of my life: I’ve quit Yandex, moved from Novosibirsk to Saint-Petersbourg.
I almost forgot about astronomy, my current hobbies are French language, music, photography (including film) and programming (which is also my profession).

Hi, I’m back.
July 12th, 2014 by Ivan BoldyrevLong time passed since last post. My life has greatly changed: I’ve divorced (well, almost), changed my job — now I work at Yandex, Russia’s largest IT company, something like Russian Google. I didn’t pay much attention to astronomy, alas (and other hobbies too) but I’ve rewritten Astronomers’ Map with Django framework (Python).
I have no idea what I will write about, but I hope I will be able to write something from time to time. 🙂
New comets on map
April 22nd, 2013 by Ivan BoldyrevI’ve added to map C/2011 L4 (PANSTARRS) and C/2012 S1 (ISON). See http://www.skyandme.com.

Novosibirsk Astrophysical center (“Large Planetarium”)
March 26th, 2012 by Ivan BoldyrevThere was a Planetarium day celebration at Large Planetarium on 24 of March. This a view from Foucault pendulum tower:
The day was windy and rainy, but about 500 people (as estimated by one of Center’s employee) attended the event.
Novosibirsk Astrophysical Center was open today
February 8th, 2012 by Ivan Boldyrev“Astophysical” means here “related to both astronomy and physics”, not “related to astrophysics”. This an educational center with planetarium, observatory, meteo station, Foucault pendulum etc.
Observatory has 360mm Ritchey–Chrétien by Astrosib and 200mm APOLAR refractor by NPZ.
See video at Russia 1 channel.
Meeting with amateur astronomers is planned tomorrow, and I am invited too, but cannot participate because of health problems 🙁
