Myanmar's Science Festival hit day three with some wild mix of activities going down at two spots in Yangon. Deputy Minister Dr Aung Zeya showed up alongside Russian nuclear experts from ROSATOM and MEPhI to check out what students were cooking up. Around 100 kids stacked towers out of paper and tape while a Myanmar woman who actually sailed to the North Pole on a nuclear-powered icebreaker dropped stories about the trip.
Russian university students dialed in online to spill about their academic experiences abroad, and the event wrapped with documentary screenings about turning rice husks into green-energy battery materials, Egypt building a nuclear plant in their fishing zones, and Russian hydrogen production from methane. Meanwhile, 140 college students grinded through a 24-hour hackathon called HackAtom at Yangon Technological University, racing to build software apps and presentations from scratch.
