It is probably wrong to call this structure a monument in the full sense of the word. It is most likely something like a memorial sign - made of metal balloon with a gondola and slings, decorated with signs of elements of the Mendeleev's periodic table — oxygen, hydrogen, carbon and nitrogen. Its aesthetic value is minimal. However, this is exactly the place from which the great chemist began his balloon flight to observe a solar Eclipse. As it turned out, precisely in Klin to do this was best. He flew a hundred and fifty miles in almost three hours and landed safely, for which he received some regalia from domestic and foreign scientific organizations. It is rather a monument to the courage, boldness and audacity of the naturalist, which Mendeleev then showed to the world.
