Stepan Gavrilovich Malygin (Template:Langx) (unknown-1 August 1764) was a Russian Arctic explorer.[1] Malygin Strait is named after him.[2]
Malygin studied at the Moscow School of Mathematics and Navigation from 1711 to 1717. After his graduation, Malygin began his career as a naval cadet and was then promoted to the rank of lieutenant four years later. He served in the Baltic Fleet until 1735.[3]
Malygin wrote the first Russian manual on navigation, titled Сокращённая навигация по карте де-Редукцион (1733).[2] In early 1736, Malygin was appointed leader of the western unit of the Second Kamchatka Expedition.[3] In 1736–1737, two boats Perviy (First) and Vtoroy (Second) under the command of Malygin and A. Skuratov undertook a voyage from Dolgiy Island in the Barents Sea to the mouth of the Ob River.[citation needed] Malygin explored this part of the Russian Arctic coastline on the trip and made a map of the area between the Pechora and Ob Rivers.[3]
Between 1741 and 1748, Malygin was placed in charge of preparing navigators for the Russian Navy. In 1762, he was appointed head of the Admiralty office in Kazan.[3]
