Besides the space race and military stuff, what did the Soviet

Tetris

certainly wasn't anything computer related.

I just like this picture. It's nice. Really puts the ol spinaroo on you yaknow?

Soviets made some pretty significant developments in nuclear technology.

They made their own successful alternative to antibiotics

I thought they invented pipeline transport but just discovered it was actually imperial Russia.

Really makes you think when you realize Russian empire was more relevant to science than the USSR.

The basic principals of the math used by Lockheed to design the F-117 stealth fighter came from some work by a mathematician into the diffraction of electromagnetic waves.

Of course his had been told by his superiors that his work was worthless and had no military or economic value, and continued research would adversely affect his career. However because of this worthlessness he was allowed to publish it and somebody at Lockheed went "hey, I read about this in a journal" and the rest is history.

without their existance, USAF would not advance much.

USAF advanced more rapidly during the cold war than any other war military advancement in history.

They were pretty big on computers, just not personal ones

Physics
- Soviet scientists were recipients of a Nobel Prize.
1958 Pavel Cherenkov, Ilya Frank and Igor Tamm "for the discovery and interpretation of the Cherenkov effect"
- 1962 Lev Landau "for his theories about condensed matter, particularly about liquid helium superfluidity"
-1964 Nikolay Basov and Aleksandr Prokhorov "for fundamental work in the area of the quantum electronics, which led to the construction of oscillators and amplifiers on the basis of the maser laser principle"
- 1978 Pyotr Kapitsa "for his fundamental inventions and discoveries in Cryophysics"
- 2001 Zhores Alferov (RU) "for the development of semiconductor heterostructures for high-speed and opto-electronics" (working in the time of the USSR)
- 2003 Alexei Abrikosov (RU), Vitaly Ginzburg (RU) "for innovative work in the theory about superconductors" (working in the time of the USSR)
Chemistry
- 1956 Nikolai Semenov For outstanding work on the mechanism of chemical transformation including an exhaustive analysis of the application of the chain theory to varied reactions (1934–1954) and, more significantly, to combustion processes. He proposed a theory of degenerate branching, which led to a better understanding of the phenomena associated with the induction periods of oxidation processes.

- Indigenous inventions, like airliners, AC transformers, radio receivers, TV, artificial satellites, ICBMs

- Scientific and medical discoveries, like the periodic law, vitamins, stem cells, and viruses

- First man in space, first woman in space, first live creature in space

- World's first nuclear fusion device

- World's first orbital station

- Maser - device which made laser possible.

- First plasma engines

... Mentioning it all will require several hundred pages.

>first live creature in space

Welding a dog inside a trash can and shooting it into space isn't normal, but on socialism it is.

Soviet ethnographers and linguists were responsible for the decipherment of the Mayan written language.

I wouldn't have believed him either.

The USAF wasn't a thing before the Cold War.

>>2111703
Don't pretend we weren't trying to do the same. We shot monkeys up there in tin cans after all.

After 60-s, nothing significant. Soviets killed their own biology and computer science, and all the social sciences were replaced by marxist-leninist crap. Since soviet science and engeneering was only producing muh tanks soviet math also stagnated.

>>2110598
Nice titties. Did Soviets have porn?

>>2112137
No no, it's only inmoral when someone else does it!

>>2112245
This is actually a good question.

Allmost nothing. The only idea of USSR was eternal wars.

They held science back just like atheism usually does.

Who could forget such soviet inventions like laser pistol, terniary computer and last, but not least thereminvox.

That will never see the light of day in capitalist land. (Although, I suppose, you wouldn't need it in the light of day. Or if you're Best Korea.)
