Bibliographic comments: Mozheyko’s original SF pseudonym, which he came up with in 1967, was “Kir. Bulychev”. “Kir.”
came from his wife’s first name, Kira, and Bulychev was his mother’s maiden name. Later on he dropped the period after
“Kir”, so it became “Kir Bulychev”. In the meantime, some of his publishers, both in the USSR and in other countries,
assumed that “Kir.” was a contraction of “Kirill”; for this reason many 1970s and1980s translations and some Russian
language editions appeared as by “Kirill Bulychev”.
