Yes, he founded the Imperial Bureau Of Standards in l893. The US did not establish a parallel federal agency until 1901 (NBS-sadly, no longer active). He was credited with a Weather-observation camera adopted by the Russian fleet, and also is believed to have discovered or theorized the existence of several unknown elements. It is a mystery to me why this learned Russian scientist, of a proven landmark status, (wouldn't the Periodic Table have been enough?) was never awarded the Nobel Prize. He was eligible form 1900 when the the Prizes began until 1907 when he died. He has been honored on Soviet stamps, of course, but it is unclear why was he snubbed by the Nobel prize people. He was in a sense a government scientist, but so was Albert Einstein in WW2.
