Nyonoksa (Russian: Нёнокса) is a rural locality (a selo) under the administrative jurisdiction of Severodvinsk Town of Oblast Significance, Arkhangelsk Oblast, Russia. It is located at the coast of the Onega Bay of the White Sea (the Summer Coast) northwest of the city of Severodvinsk.

In the vicinity of Nyonoksa there is also a rocket launching site of the Russian Navy with the same name. Since 1965 numerous rockets of the types R-27, R-29, Rif and Gnom were launched from Nyonoksa. These rockets were prototypes for the employment on missile submarines. The launching site is located in the settlement of Sopka 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) north of the selo of Nyonoksa.

On 15 December 2015, an accident during a missile launch test resulted in a block of flats in the village being hit by part of a rocket. A fire broke out, but all residents were evacuated in time.[5]
