   In 2024 Bauman Moscow State Technical University together with BITS-Pilani University will organize the II International scientific conference "Space. Time. Civilization. STC-2024", to be held in three countries simultaneously: India, Egypt and Russia from November 2nd to 7th, 2024.

   The STS-2023 conference was held in Egypt and was a great success. You can find the information about it on https://stc2023.com/. The chairman of the STC-2023 scientific committee was the well-known theoretical physicist, Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences Alexey Aleksandrovich Starobinsky.

   The STC-2024 conference is dedicated to the memory of A.A. Starobinsky.

   The conference will focus on the theory and experiment in the field of gravitation, the study of the properties of astrophysical objects and large-scale structures of the Universe, and the relationship between the development of natural sciences and sustainable Civilization development. The STC-2024 Conference is a logical extension the Physical Interpretations of Relativity Theory (PIRT) international scientific conference (https://pirt.bmstu.ru/en/).
