Sputnik V Diamond

Alrosa has named a 100-carat light yellow diamond after Russia's COVID-19 vaccine. The diamond is a 100.53 carat flattened octahedron recovered from alluvial deposits in Yakutia. Last September, Sputnik V became the world's first approved coronavirus vaccine. It takes its name from the first Soviet space satellite, launched into space in 1957.
