No other country could have it, eh? Those folks never had an original idea. I'd be willing to bet they stole it from the US.

Tsiolkovsky, Konstantin Eduardovich (1857-1935), Russian scientist and inventor, a pioneer in rocket and space research. At the age of nine he lost his hearing almost completely and he studied mostly at home; he worked as a high school mathematics teacher until retiring in 1920. In the mid-1880s Tsiolkovsky began research in aerostatics, publishing articles containing plans for a metal dirigible (1892), an airplane (1894), and a spaceship (1903). During the 1920s he elaborated his theory of multistage rockets and of the flight of jet engines. He was made (1918) a member of the Soviet Academy. Among his books are Dreams of Earth and Sky (1895) and A Rocket into Cosmic Space (1903), in which he proposed the use of liquid-propellants for spaceships. A crater on the moon's far side is named after him. Source: Microsoft Encarta 97
