Pyotr Kapitsa’s zodiac sign is Cancer. According to astrologers, the sign of Cancer belongs to the element of Water, just like Scorpio and Pisces. Guided by emotion and their heart, they could have a hard time blending into the world around them. Being ruled by the Moon, phases of the lunar cycle deepen their internal mysteries and create fleeting emotional patterns that are beyond their control. As children, they don't have enough coping and defensive mechanisms for the outer world, and have to be approached with care and understanding, for that is what they give in return.
Pyotr Kapitsa was born in the Year of the Horse. Those born under the Chinese Zodiac sign of the Horse love to roam free. They’re energetic, self-reliant, money-wise, and they enjoy traveling, love and intimacy. They’re great at seducing, sharp-witted, impatient and sometimes seen as a drifter. Compatible with Dog or Tiger.
Russian Physicist who won the 1978 Nobel Prize for Physics for discovering superfluidity. He worked for over a decade with fellow Nobel laureate Ernest Rutherford.
His research at Cambridge University in England led him to discover a way to more efficiently make liquid helium.
He went to visit the USSR from Cambridge in 1934, but was not allowed to return, and thus spent the rest of his life in Moscow.
He married Anna Alekseevna Krylova, daughter of another noted Russian academic and the couple had two sons, Sergei and Andrei, together.
He had a falling out with the head of the Russian secret police and survived because Joseph Stalin picked Pyotr's side in the dispute.
