Before leaving the [[Moon]] on [[Apollo 11]]'s [[Apollo Lunar Module|Lunar Module]], [[Neil Armstrong]]'s final task was to place a small package of memorial items to honor Soviet cosmonauts Komarov, [[Yuri Gagarin]], and the Apollo 1 astronauts [[Gus Grissom]], [[Ed White (astronaut)|Ed White]], and [[Roger Chaffee]].<ref>{{cite web |last1=Jones |first1=Eric M. |last2=Glover |first2=Ken |title=EASEP Deployment and Closeout |url=http://www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/a11/a11.clsout.html |website=Apollo 11 Lunar Surface Journal |publisher=NASA |access-date=March 28, 2014 |at=111:36:38 |date=1995 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140225025455/http://www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/a11/a11.clsout.html |archive-date=February 25, 2014}}</ref> Komarov's name also appears on a commemorative plaque left at [[Hadley Rille]] on the Moon by [[David Scott]], commander of [[Apollo 15]], in memory of 14 deceased NASA astronauts and USSR cosmonauts, along with a small sculpture entitled ''[[Fallen Astronaut]]'', on 1 August 1971. This plaque and the sculpture represent those astronauts and cosmonauts who died in the quest to reach [[outer space]] and the Moon.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/a15/a15.clsout3.html |title=Hammer and Feather|website=www.hq.nasa.gov|publisher=NASA|at=167:41:30|type=Apollo 15 Lunar Surface Journal|access-date=2016-06-28|quote=Scott – "We made a plaque for all the astronauts and cosmonauts that had been killed. And a little figurine, a Fallen Astronaut, and we put it right by the Rover. You can see it in the picture (AS15-88-11893). That was just a little memorial, in alphabetical order. In relative terms, we had both lost a lot and, interestingly enough, we didn't lose any more after that until Challenger. That's what I was doing when I said I was cleaning up behind the Rover (at 167:43:36). Jim knew what I was doing. We just thought we'd recognize the guys that made the ultimate contribution."}}</ref>

The [[asteroid]] [[1836 Komarov]], discovered in 1971, was named in the honor of Komarov, as was a [[Komarov (crater)|crater on the Moon]].<ref>{{Cite book |last=Schmadel |first=Lutz D. |author-link=Lutz D.

This asteroid and the cosmonaut inspired the composer [[Brett Dean]] to write a piece of symphonic music commissioned by conductor [[Simon Rattle]] in 2006. The composition is named ''Komarov's Fall'', and it can be found on the EMI Classics Album of Simon Rattle's ''[[The Planets]]''.

The [[Fédération Aéronautique Internationale]]'s ''V.M. Komarov Diploma'' is named in Komarov's honor.

There was formerly a Soviet [[satellite]]-tracking ship named for Komarov, the ''[[Kosmonaut Vladimir Komarov]]''.
