On May 18th, an event dedicated to Science Day titled "The Magic of Books - The Magic of Science, or One Day with Albert Einstein" took place, with over 50 students from Kharkiv schools participating.

The participants learned about scientific achievements that have significantly impacted the world and discussed a range of topics, including:

  • Why Kharkiv is considered the city of physicists;
  • Understanding nature and opening doors to new technologies;
  • A new approach to training modern physicists;
  • Kharkiv and extraterrestrial civilizations;
