The results of the first All-Russian Space Dictation, organized as part of the federal project "Personnel for Space," have been announced. The top three finishers were young researchers from the State University of Management—graduate students Nikita Akinshin and Vladimir Kutkov.
Over a thousand people from across Russia participated in the event—students, young professionals, and anyone passionate about space and science. Each participant has already received a personalized certificate. The organizers expressed special gratitude to the universities whose students demonstrated the greatest participation: the First Management University, Lomonosov Moscow State University (MSU), Moscow Automobile and Road Construction State Technical University (MADI), Russian State Hydrometeorological University (RSHU), and St. Petersburg State University of Aerospace Instrumentation (SUAI).
Winners were determined by the number of correct answers: one question = one point. The competition demanded not only knowledge but also speed—in cases of ties, the time it took to submit the work was taken into account; in some cases, the difference was literally a few seconds.
Our colleagues, graduate students Nikita Akinshin and Vladimir Kutkov, took the lead in the race, receiving a navigator's watch from the "Gagarin" series as a prize. Everyone who made it into the top 30 received special certificates, as well as prizes and gifts from the federal project "Personnel for Space."
Alexander Vedekhin, administrator of the Russian Ministry of Education and Science's federal project "Personnel for Space," thanked all participants, organizers, partners, and universities for their contribution to the development of scientific and technical culture and their support of interest in space: "We hope the All-Russian Space Dictation will become an important educational initiative that will unite students and young professionals from across the country. Thanks to this event, thousands of participants across our country will not only test their knowledge of space but also foster interest in scientific and technical creativity. I am confident that this will help us all prepare a new generation of engineers and specialists capable of solving the strategic challenges of the Russian space industry and ensuring the country's technological leadership in the future."
We heartily congratulate our winners! GUU is the best again!
