Sardegna Ricerche Award to MareTerra

MareTerra Onlus won the Award “Scienza che Passione” at the SCIENCE 2DAY Event, an initiative promoted by Sardegna Ricerche and financed by the Autonomous Region of Sardinia, which involved more than 700 people at the Technology Park of Pula (Cagliari, Italy). Among the 30 projects submitted, coming from different Sardinian non-profit organizations engaged in the field of scientific dissemination, our association won the first prize in the category "General Public" with the project “Scale Factors”.

Understanding of the world around us depends on the time frequency and the spatial dimension we investigate, thus it is a matter of "Scale Factors".

In the human being, as well as in all living beings, natural selection has favored the development of senses able to improve the perception of those stimulus necessary for the survival of the species in its environment. The senses filter out the way we perceive the environment and affect the ability to investigate and judge the phenomena we observe. Another limitation in the observation of natural phenomena is the duration of our life cycle: some phenomena evolve too slowly to be perceptible, other too fast to be visible. All phenomena that take place at temporal and spatial scales beyond our limits would be unknown if we had not developed technological solutions. The project “Scale Factors" is a journey through the most modern techniques and technologies that allow scientists to "unravel the world to the world”.

THANKS TO SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

THE FUTURE OF MAN AND NATURE CAN GO TO THE SAME PATH
