Tsiolkovsky, Urban settlement in Amur Oblast, Russia
The town features thirty-three residential blocks, central heating, schools, a hospital, and other essential facilities for its 5,892 inhabitants.
Established in 1961 as Uglegorsk, the settlement received its current name in 2014 to honor Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, a Russian space exploration theorist.
The settlement maintains a closed-town status, restricting access while supporting the operations of the adjacent Vostochny Cosmodrome space launch facility.
Transportation connections include the Ledyanaya station on the Trans-Siberian Railway and direct access to the Amur Highway M58.
The settlement serves as the primary residential area for personnel working at Russia's newest spaceport, reducing dependence on Kazakhstan's Baikonur facility.
