It probably doesn't have an official name for itself in English. "Kolsky" means "of Kola" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kola_Peninsula), and there are several ways of transliterating it into English. "Research Institute", too, could be one of several things, and each could have a different English translation. It would take a while to try all possible combinations in Google and see if something comes up, but that nothing comes up for "Kolsky Research Institute" means nothing.

Maybe soon we'll be able to use nuclear power as much as we want. Once we start recycling leftover radioactive wastes, fission becomes sustainable enough.
Smells fishy
1)Invent a way to eliminate nuclear fallout
2)Retreat into a space station
3)Incite nuclear war below
4)Wait for apocalypse
5)Come back down, clean the place up, and take it for yourself
The Russians are avenging the Soviets' failure to spread communism throughout the entire world.
7) ???
8) Use step 7 to get the aliens to buy the planet instead of taking it.
9) Profit!
