Трагедия рода Сатпаевых: как первый академик спасал детей от голода и пережил расстрел 4-х братьев

Kanysh Satpayev was the first president of the Academy of Sciences of Kazakhstan and one of the key geologists of the USSR. But his true story is about more than just science. It's about a life lived on the edge: a serious illness, family repression, Moscow's mistrust, and decisions that influenced the course of the war. This video tells Satpayev's full biography: from his childhood in the steppe to his worldwide recognition. How he survived tuberculosis, lost his brothers during the years of repression, and continued working when no one believed in him. How he proved the importance of Zhezkazgan and why his research became crucial for the production of armor for Soviet T-34 tanks. We will also discuss: — his connections with the Alash Orda people and his complex relationship with the authorities; — his assistance during the famine in the steppe; — the persecution and pressure he faced; — his meeting with Winston Churchill and international recognition. This is the story not only of a scientist, but also of a man who went against the system—and changed the future of his country.
