Academician of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences (RANS) Yuri Nagernyak commented on the launch of the Science and Technology program on REN TV.
The Science and Technology program helps young people expand their knowledge of the exact sciences, learn more about innovations introduced by Russian specialists, he is sure.
“The program, which promotes the exact sciences, which reveals to young people those things that they do not study at school, it awakens interest in science and technology. She is extremely important. The Russian engineering school in the last decades of the 19th century, throughout the 20th century, was one of the most advanced in the world. But if we look around, then in everyday life almost all technically complex things are made in foreign countries. In this sense, we need to catch up on what has been lost, to restore our first-class technical and engineering school. Therefore, it is important for us to arouse young people’s interest in both fundamental and applied science, in the development of technology – not as users, but as developers,” added Nagernyak.
In Russia, there is a lack of interest among young people in technical sciences, Nagernyak said. In this regard, the launch of a new program is an important step in the popularization of scientific knowledge, the scientist said.
A day earlier, the authors of the program “Science and Technology” said that the new program is a weekly hour-long lecture on physics in the “hot action” genre. For a complete immersion in the topic, host Mikhail Borzenkov will put on spectacular and even dangerous experiments.
The creators of the project are faced with an ambitious task – to try to visualize science.
As Alexander Chernenko, an employee of the Institute of Solid State Physics of the Russian Academy of Sciences, noted the day before, the program will give viewers information about how science is becoming an engine of change in a rapidly changing world.
On the air of the Science and Technology show, host Mikhail Borzenkov will answer questions that were previously asked only by science fiction writers and historians. The program can be watched on Saturdays at 12:00.
The show will premiere on January 22nd.
