On February 10, 2018, an “open laboratory”-an international educational and educational action, which was invented and conducted by scientific journalists and scientists.
The event will become part of the celebration of the Day of Russian Science, which is traditionally celebrated on February 8.
The mass action to verify the scientific literacy of Russians will take place within one day in dozens of settlements of the country - from the village of Achayva in Kamchatka to the city of Apatita in the Murmansk region. The action, which was all -Russian, now becomes “open”, since this year will be held in at least 10 countries of the world - in China, Germany, France, the Czech Republic, Kazakhstan and others.

But the Laba team recommends that the readers of the TRV-hobby become “laboratory assistants” at the Cosmonautics Museum (February 10, beginning at 15:00, registration on the OpenLab.timepad.ru/event/654214/ ).
The seizure here will be Yuri Kovalev, a corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, chairman of the Council for Science of the Ministry of Education and Science, the head of the scientific program of the International Space Project "Radio Astron", the head of laboratories to Fian and the MIPT.
And immediately after the action, the presentation-response of the book “Big Cosmic Journey” will take place.
We will not hide that our favorite topic is the beauty of space and astronautics, astronomy and incredible spiritual extensions and achievements in the study of the Universe. Therefore, when the Publishing House "Peter" invited us to participate in the publication in Russian the book "Big Cosmic Journey" of the best Western popularizer of astronomy Neil Degrass Tyson and its co -authors, we agreed almost instantly. The co -founder of the "Laba" Alexander Sergeyev became a scientific editor and wrote a preface.
