...Arkady Ilyich leads the whole Deposit of episodes from the life of S. P. Korolev, Moscow and Baikonur, but in the stories he never emphasizes its role, sometimes leading, as if he was there and only. This ability to look from the side, being in the center of events, the wilful detachment allows to him, like the custodian of the great MYSTERIES of TIME, keep it to once share the secret, tell you first hand...[1]

A veteran of cosmonautics, resident of the city of Korolev, Moscow region, and colleague of Arcadia Ilyich Gennady Nikolaevich Artamonov wrote poems about Arcadia Ilyich Ostashevu:

Baikonur, soldier's Park, tombstone of the grave of the Ostashev brothers

Rocket fire tried to get away,
But could not, and she froze...
In granite black
Memory we still have to go
In the Park of silence, the silence of the plates.
October the Baikonur not forgotten.
And now here without unnecessary big words
"Come" and lay down Arkady Осташев.
He came to his brother, ro relax,
Maybe with him to pass the eternal path.
Burning steppes, and melt concrete...
October he will not forget the polygon.

gollark: I mean, maybe in museums, I just didn't really pay attention.
gollark: Hunting rifle no, and I may not actually have ever seen one in person, bow and arrow yes, I said so.
gollark: Also not a crossbow. Although I did fire a non-cross bow at some point.
gollark: No. Like I said, it never came up, this being the united kingdom™, which does not like guns™.
gollark: Also running `optipng` over some image files I had, which can mildly reduce their size.
