Abstract
Vasily Mishin (1917–2001) was a prominent Russian engineer and scientist: one of the pioneers who made spaceflight a reality. In 2014 diaries that were maintained by Mishin from 1960 to 1974 (the Mishin Diaries) had been transcribed and published and can now serve as an extensive resource for first-hand historical information about that fascinating period of time. The original Diaries are now owned by the Perot Foundation and copies were generously provided by them to the Moscow Aviation Institute for this transcription project. The actual publication was made possible by Mishin's students, co-workers, family members as well as numerous spaceflight historians and enthusiasts.
