Before Phobos-Grunt?
What of his activities he done before involved in Phobos-Grunt? His Mars 96 involvement? 115.135.144.217 (talk) 16:37, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

Please read
As it says above xontentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately from the article and its talk page, especially if potentially libellous. --Racklever (talk) 12:39, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

Birth date and location?
Have anyone know about IKI RAN's deputy scientist Alexander Zakharov's birth date and location? If you got it, then we can determine his age. 115.133.220.33 (talk) 05:55, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

Dubious claims
I am removing the following text from the article's Alexander V. Zakharov section, nothwithstanding its citation by two russian media sources, and that is because I am not convinced those sources support the text, especially as I see no evidence for the name Zakharov appearing in them. However, could a Russian-language literate editor possibly check the sources and determine what they can in fact support, either for this article or the articles Fobos-Grunt and Exomars?
 *  However, with Russia being included in the European Space Agency's ExoMars program, his Fobos-Grunt mission team was disbanded and possibly recruited into that program or simply disappeared.

After Fobos-Grunt?
After January 2012, Alexander Zakharov remains out of the picture of the media.

There are a few possibilities why he did so.


 * He could be resigned and/or retired from IKI.
 * He could be disappeared just like Madeleine McCann five years ago.
 * He could be as normal as before, like all lecturers in universities and colleges.

I ruled out the first two. There is some indication that Zakharov will be attending some kind of conference at Resorts World Singapore in August 2012. Can anyone clarify this? 115.133.217.78 (talk) 13:55, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

I think there was a memorial service for the Fobos-Grunt team in which participants laid their roses. 115.135.144.255 (talk) 04:05, 12 May 2012 (UTC)

Death information
Zakharov may die at old age sometime after 2015, according to DeathClock.com Death Information for Alexander Zakharov. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.133.216.143 (talk) 12:06, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
 * That violates both WP:BLP and WP:CRYSTAL, not to mention WP:RS. Do not add it again. -- W.  D.   Graham  15:29, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
