Happy World Science Day!From IGES, Gyumri · 10 November

World Science Day for Peace and Development

People build the stations in the mountains. Each new station starts listening to the Earth and sends its data to Gyumri, and the data keep us safe.

For IGES, science is close to everyday life. The stations of the CHARNET network listen to the Earth day and night, the Gyulagarak observatory records the Earth’s magnetic field, and our research helps to build safer cities. Since 1961 we have worked for one aim: that knowledge about the Earth protects people.

We thank our partners for their cooperation and wish everyone new discoveries, open science and a peaceful sky.
