Astronomers of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Crimea is moving towards Russia

The tectonic movement of the Crimea Peninsula is directed to mainland Russia, said Alexander Ipatov, head of the Institute of Applied Astronomy of the Russian Academy of Sciences. It is reported by Interfax.

“In fact, this is not a joke, although very similar. Crimea moves around the northeast, ”said the director of the institute.

Scientists argue that the movement was recorded using a complex of telescopes "Quasar-KVO".
