And again, the reformer Peter the Great brought a bit of the Western European way of life to the country. According to his decree of February 8, 1724, the Academy of Sciences was approved. Hence the memorable date - the day of science. The most interesting thing is that the name of the institution has not changed in any way, abbreviations and names of new old states were added to the Academy of Sciences, depending on historical events. Since 1925, the institution was called the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, and since 1991 the Russian Academy of Sciences.
official date
The Day of Russian Science began to be celebrated only in 1999. According to the presidential decree, the holiday was officially fixed on February 8, thus building a historical bridge between our and Peter's times. And how many wonderful scientists Russia gave to the world in different eras. This is also a simple village boy, who later became one of the most prominent sons of science and founded Moscow University. We are talking about Mikhail Lomonosov, who, centuries later, marks the Day of Russian Science of the Year. These are the outstanding scientists of the 20th century Academician Pavlov, Tsiolkovsky, Kapitsa, Landau, Kurchatov and Korolev. And this is just a small list of our famous scientists compatriots.
Ahead of the planet
Our country has become a legislator in a number of scientific fields. We were the first to fly into space, made important developments in nuclear energy and the biosphere. Our great scientists have won the Nobel Prize in many different fields. The first of these was the famous Professor Pavlov for his work, which described the basics of the physiology of digestion. On the day of science, it is also worth remembering the outstanding biologist Ilya Mechnikov, who received an award for his work on immunity. In 1978, the Russian physicist Pyotr Kapitsa was awarded Nobel Prize for the most important discovery in physics, the proof of the superfluidity of helium. Science Day in Russia is not an empty word and not a legacy of Soviet developments. Our most recent scientist was the physicist Novoselov, who was noted by the Swedish Academy of Sciences for his research on graphene. It happened quite recently - in 2010.
Structure
The Russian Academy of Sciences includes 9 directions at once, depending on the field of study, which are located in Moscow. The RAS also has 3 regional departments and 15 large research centers. Science Day is celebrated in all departments of a large scientific structure. The Russian Academy of Sciences is a whole city scattered across the expanses of the country, with a population of 50,000 people. Among them are honorary "residents", and these are 500 academicians and 800 corresponding members. Despite the fact that the official date, according to the decree of the President of the Russian Federation, is set for February 8, most of the old-school employees of the Russian Academy of Sciences prefer to celebrate Science Day, as before, on the third Sunday of April.
The Academy of Sciences of Russia was founded by the Decree of the progressive sovereign Peter I in 1724 on February 8, who himself studied throughout his life, and in every possible way encouraged any undertakings, scientific research and discoveries. Since 1925, the organization has become known as the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, and since 1991, after the collapse of the union, - the Russian Academy of Sciences. Today progressive figures of the country will celebrate the Day of Russian Science on February 8 . Employees of research institutes of all branches, scientists conducting research activities within the walls of educational institutions - graduate students, candidates and doctors of sciences are directly related to this holiday.
Why the Day of Russian Science is important
The development of life is not possible without discoveries. Any home appliances that make life easier modern man is the result of scientific research. It is impossible to imagine how our great-grandmothers coped with household chores, having only two hands, a large family, and at the same time working in the field, in a factory or in another institution. Thanks to progress, a lot of time has been freed up that you can devote to your children, your favorite hobby or sport. People whose activities in our country are connected with discoveries and research celebrate on February 8, 2017 the Day of Russian Science. Space exploration, the study of the laws of nature, the creation of new materials, the further improvement of advanced technologies - this is not a complete list of scientific areas. Young scientists begin their first steps in graduate school, where, under the guidance of experienced teachers, they conduct research in various fields of science, write scientific papers, and defend candidate dissertations. Research is carried out in two directions: theoretical and applied. Scientific and research developments are funded by the state, allocations, unfortunately, are not large enough. However, recently the government has turned towards scientists. Modern innovation centers began to be built, one of which is Skolkovo, which attracts young talented scientists from all over Russia. Science City promises to become a center where all conditions for the successful implementation of their ideas will be provided to those working in priority sectors of the economy. The main directions will be the following:
- biomedical research;
- telecommunications;
- space;
- energy;
- Information Technology;
- nuclear research.
As a result of the work, Skolkovo is expected to receive a self-governing, self-developing ecosystem that would contribute to the development of entrepreneurship and the formation of successful companies that are competitive in the global market.
On February 8, the Day of Russian Science is celebrated not only by scientists, but also by workers who bring creative and innovative ideas to life. After all, only experimentally can confirm the real value of the invention. High-precision instruments and equipment used in practice also help to achieve the expected results.
How the Day of Russian Science is celebrated
Employees of educational institutions - professors, academicians, graduate students, employees of research institutions, the Ministry of Education and the Academy of Sciences gather at the celebrations dedicated to this holiday. Solemn meetings, at which congratulations are received by all scientists, necessarily include awards, especially those who have distinguished themselves are awarded diplomas, titles, valuable and cash gifts. Grants are given for upcoming important research and development. The best students of universities are also encouraged, they are assigned personal scholarships, they are invited to graduate schools and the most prestigious scientific institutions after graduation.
On Science Day Russian Federation 2017, the first persons of the state invite those who are engaged in creative research to voice their problems and wishes that would contribute to successful work. The most promising employees are invited to the congratulations ceremony at the Kremlin Palace, where they receive government awards, diplomas, honorary titles and talk about their future plans.
On this day, congratulations are also heard from the radio and television screens, speeches by scientists who talk about their achievements. And of course, holiday concerts dedicated to Russian Day sciences 2017. Power engineers, physicists, chemists, astronauts of the country make a worthy contribution to the development of the state economy and glorify it on the world stage.
Competitions and scientific projects dedicated to the Day of Russian Science
Education and science are closely linked, there can be no science without education, just as education is impossible without science. Therefore, even in schools, especially inquisitive children begin to engage in research and write their first scientific works. Information in our time is not difficult to obtain - libraries and the Internet contain a large number of works and reports in various areas. And schoolchildren, under the guidance of their teachers, and often receiving advice from teachers of universities where they go to preparatory courses, write interesting creative work in various directions:
- physics and chemistry;
- history and natural science;
- astronomy;
- literature and art.
An individual approach to the issue and the systematization of the received material contribute to the creation of original works. These works are put up for competition, dedicated to the day sciences, the commission evaluates them and awards places. The most talented students receive benefits for entering a university, or the right to study without entrance exams.
In higher educational institutions the most successful works and original projects submitted for the competition are a step towards further employment in the field of science or a step towards obtaining a scientific degree among graduate students.
The Russian Humanitarian Science Foundation (RHF) has already announced 2017 competitions in the following areas:
- history, archeology, ethnography;
- philosophy, sociology, political science, jurisprudence, science of science;
- economy;
- philology, art history;
- global problems and international relations;
- psychology, pedagogy, ecology.
Competitions are held in several directions: support for young scientists, preparation of popular science works, regional and international. Those who wish can familiarize themselves with the conditions, deadlines for submitting works and admission rules on the website of the Russian Humanitarian Foundation.
All roads are open to young, capable and persistent people in Russia. Having the desire and knowledge, you can safely walk the path of progress and become a world-famous scientist.

DAY OF RUSSIAN SCIENCE
Every year on February 8, the domestic scientific community celebrates its professional holiday - the Day of Russian Science, established by the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation in 1999. The Decree states that the holiday was established " considering the outstanding role of domestic science in the development of the state and society, following historical traditions and in commemoration of the 275th anniversary of the founding of the Academy of Sciences in Russia.
slide number 1
The Day of Russian Science is timed to coincide with the date of the establishment of the Russian Academy of Sciences by Peter I on February 8 (January 28 - old style) 1724. In 2017, the Day of Russian Science is celebrated for the 18th time
slide number 2
In the Soviet Union, the Academy acquired the name of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR. After the collapse of the USSR in 1991, the Russian Academy of Sciences was organized. In 1999 the Academy celebrated its 275th anniversary. Thus, the tradition of celebrating the Day of Science on February 8 was restored. The Russian Academy of Sciences today is the largest research center in our country.
slide number 3
The structure of the Russian Academy of Sciences includes nine departments in areas and areas of science, three departments and fifteen research centers of a regional nature. There are also branch state academies of sciences: "Russian Academy of Education", "Russian Academy of Medical Sciences", "Russian Academy of Agricultural Sciences", "Russian Academy of Architecture and Building Sciences", "Russian Academy of Arts". In total, the Academy has 470 scientific institutions, more than 55 thousand researchers, including more than 500 academicians and 800 corresponding members
From the 18th century to the present day, Russia has made an enormous contribution to the development of world science. Mikhail Vasilyevich Lomonosov, Ivan Petrovich Pavlov, Dmitry Ivanovich Mendeleev, Konstantin Eduardovich Tsiolkovsky, Petr Leonidovich Kapitsa, Lev Davidovich Landau, Igor Vasilyevich Kurchatov, 3 Pavel Sergeevich Alexandrov, Sergei Pavlovich Korolev - these are just a small part of the names of Russian scientists who have contributed to world science . Russia became the first country where the doctrine of the biosphere was developed, the world's first artificial Earth satellite was launched into space, the world's first nuclear power plant was put into operation
The founders of Russian science.
Russian scientists of the XX-XXI centuries. were the successors of the scientific traditions that the scientists of the past laid down.
Schoolchildren talk about them and their contribution to science.
Pages oral journal:
Mikhail Vasilievich Lomonosov- the scientist and inventor left a huge mark in many areas of human activity: literature, physics, chemistry, geography, geology, metallurgy, astronomy, history, etc. Dmitry Ivanovich Mendeleev is a great Russian encyclopedic scientist, chemist, physicist, technologist, geologist and even a meteorologist. His main discovery is the Periodic Table of Chemical Elements.
Ivan Petrovich Pavlov- an outstanding domestic biologist, the first Nobel Prize winner in Russia. He became the founder of the largest Russian physiological school and the creator of the doctrine of higher nervous activity. He studied digestion, blood circulation, higher nervous activity of man. His discoveries are still serving medicine today. Pavlov passionately believed in science, believed that it was science that could save "the human race from diseases, from hunger, from enmity, and reduce grief in people's lives." This faith gave him strength and helped him in his work.
Ilya Ilyich Mechnikov- an outstanding Russian microbiologist, physiologist, immunologist, founder of scientific gerontology. Gerontology is a science that studies the biological, social and psychological aspects of human aging, its causes and ways to deal with it (rejuvenation). Mechnikov's numerous works on bacteriology are devoted to the epidemiology of cholera, typhoid fever, tuberculosis, and other infectious diseases.
Nikolai Egorovich Zhukovsky- "father" (and sometimes they say "grandfather") of Russian aviation. In 1918, Zhukovsky created the Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute. Now it is TsAGI, the largest state aviation research center in Russia, which bears the name of its creator. NOT. Zhukovsky believed that a person would definitely fly, relying on the power of his mind.
Konstantin Eduardovich Tsiolkovsky, "the father of Russian cosmonautics", is a modest self-taught teacher from Kaluga, who developed the theory of interplanetary flights, thanks to which a person was able to penetrate into space. Here is how the scientist explained why he was engaged in science at all: “The main motive of my life is to do something useful for people, not to live life in vain, to move humanity forward at least a little. That is why I was interested in that which gave me neither bread nor strength. But I hope that my works, maybe soon, or maybe in the distant future, will give society mountains of bread and an abyss of power.”
Outstanding domestic scientists and inventors.
Domestic scientists have presented world science with many inventions and made many interesting discoveries in various fields of science and science. Everyday life. Who invented the first parachute?
A safe road from air to earth for pilots was laid in 1911 by a Russian inventor Gleb Evgenievich Kotelnikov, son of a professor of mechanics and higher mathematics. He suggested using a compact folding parachute in such cases. The silk dome was attached to the shoulder girths of the suspension system with the help of slings. The death of pilot L.M. prompted Kotelnikov to create a parachute. Marcievich, which made a very strong impression on him.
A television, without which it is difficult to imagine our life today, was invented at the very beginning of the last century by a domestic scientist Boris Lvovich Rosing. On July 25, 1907, he announced to the whole world about the possibility of transmitting images over a distance using electrical signals, and in 1911 he demonstrated his invention to the Russian technical society. Under the guidance of Professor B.L. Rosing worked for several years as the inventor of kinescopes for black-and-white and color television Vladimir Kozmich Zworykin.
Parachute and gas mask, radio and television, telegraph and astronautics, periodic table of chemical elements, photosynthesis, lasers, synthetic rubber, electric welding, vitamins, anesthesia, high-octane gasoline, tankers, tanks, oil pipelines, the best submarines in the world, computer tomographs, three-phase current - all this was created, discovered and invented by Russian scientists.
It is the 20th century that is called the Golden Age of Russian science. At the very beginning of the last century, such world-famous stars of Russian science as D. Mendeleev, K. Tsiolkovsky, I. Pavlov, I. Mechnikov, V. Bekhterev, N. Zhukovsky shone on the scientific horizon of Russia. Then S. Korolev, A. Tupolev, I. Kurchatov, D. Sakharov, M. Keldysh, L. Landau and others picked up the baton of scientific discoveries. They made Russian science one of the world leaders.
Nobel Prize- the most prestigious award in the field of science. It has been awarded since 1901 for outstanding scientific research, revolutionary inventions, major contributions to culture or society. The prize is named after the famous scientist Alfred Nobel and, in accordance with his will, is awarded to the winner in each of the five scientific fields: physiology and medicine, physics, chemistry, literature (all since 1901) and economics (since 1969). In the event that a team of scientists wins in one field of science, the prize is divided in equal shares between them.
Fifteen Russian and Soviet scientists have been awarded Nobel Prizes. The first of those awarded, in 1904, was Academician I.P. Pavlov for his work on the physiology of digestion, then, in 1908, - I.I. Mechnikov for his work on immunity. ( chemist N. Semenov, physics P. Cherenkov, I. Tamm, I. Frank, L. Landau, N. Basov, P. Kapitsa, A. Prokhorov, Zh. Alferov). The last Russian laureate was the physicist K.S. Novoselov, who received the Nobel Prize in 2010 for pioneering experiments on the two-dimensional graphene material.
Quiz "From the history of discovery"
"Do you know that…?"

The greatest contribution to science was made by the third representative of the dynasty - a Soviet physicist, academician, Nobel Prize winner, member of many foreign academies of sciences and scientific societies. His works are devoted to nuclear physics, physics and technology of superstrong magnetic fields, physics and technology low temperatures, physics of high-temperature plasma.
Say his name.
(Pyotr Leonidovich Kapitsa)
Discoveries have influenced and continue to influence our lives, and without the discoveries of domestic scientists today it would be impossible to use modern gadgets.
Many of the students can become both scientists and inventors, making a very important discovery for the whole world. At the same time, it doesn’t matter at all in which area it will be done, what specialty and profession this or that today’s student will become, where exactly he will work. The main thing is to get the necessary knowledge, skills, competencies, to be able to achieve your goal, and the school and other educational institutions will help you with this.
And who knows, maybe the future Nobel Prize winner grows up in our school! Remember: the greatest victory will come only to those who know how to win over themselves the smallest victories that are invisible to others: “If your work leads to knowledge of the world, no matter how difficult it is, go ahead!”
