radugadive.narod.ru — the domain of the Nizhny Novgorod underwater club "Raduga" ("Rainbow") named after V.A. Sheronov, listed in the nn.ru directory with the description "Scuba diving in N. Novgorod and beyond. Training under the CMAS system"[1]. The earliest snapshot of the site in the web archive is dated December 13, 2002[1].

What the club's site looked like

Of the earliest version of the site in the web archive, only the page title survives: "Underwater club 'Raduga' named after V.A. Sheronov. Scuba diving and training under the CMAS system"[1]. Text of the page itself for 2002 is present in the preserved capture, but it is no longer than the title — it repeats the same phrase about the club and the CMAS system in full, without menu sections or club contact details.

Place in the Nizhny Novgorod internet

The site was listed in the nn.ru directory (the /rub/ section) under the name of the underwater club "Raduga" named after V.A. Sheronov, noting that the club provided diving training in Nizhny Novgorod under the international CMAS system[1]. The site's card records a rating of 0.0 and 0 votes with no source indicated — these could be genuine zeros or unfilled default fields; no direct link between these figures and the Counter.nn.ru rating or voting at the Nizhny Novgorod Internet Day is recorded in our data.

Fate of the address

By 2013, the home page at radugadive.narod.ru had no relation to the Nizhny Novgorod underwater club: as the home page stated, it was a general-purpose "diving website," with sections on safety, divers' health, and dive geography — articles on Cyprus, Sulawesi Island, the Great Barrier Reef, Malta, the Cayman Islands, the Maldives, and other destinations, without a single mention of Nizhny Novgorod[2]. The same generic content — texts on Murphy's Law underwater, freediving in Cyprus, and barotrauma — persisted on the domain in the last recorded snapshot, from April 15, 2026[3]. Judging by this change of content, it can be assumed that after the club "Raduga's" registration lapsed, the domain passed to another owner and became a general diving website no longer connected to Nizhny Novgorod; the material contains no direct data on the club's site being moved to another address. The last recorded snapshot of the domain in the web archive is dated May 18, 2026. When checked in August 2026, the site at this address was responding.
