Yes, I believe he's on the left in the pantheon:

but the english wikipedia article talks mostly about those of his ideas which had substantial impact, and doesn't mention his more science-fictional manifestos.
(My guesses: Циолковский, Королёв, Гагарин, ??)

I believe the last photo is Alexey Leonov possibly with Pavel Belyaev (not really sure), of the Voskhod 2 mission. Leonov was the first person to do a spacewalk.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pavel_Belyayev (some interesting tidbits about the Voskhod 2 mission there)
He was considered one of the founding fathers of cosmonautics in the USSR.
