Astro Space Center (Russia)


This enclave of scientific research is officially known as Astro Space Center of PN Lebedev Physics Institute, (ASC LPI) and is under the purview of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Generally speaking, the space center's mission focuses on astrophysics, which includes cosmology. The emphasis is on accomplishing basic research in this science. The research leads into exploring the composition, and structure of astronomical objects, interstellar and interplanetary space along with exploring how these evolved.

The Astro Space Center is separated into three divisions, two of which are national observatories. These three divisions are the " Moscow branch", the Pushchino Radio Astronomy Observatory, and Kalyazin Radio Astronomy Observatory. The ASC divisions accomplish research, and achieve scientific milestones, and perform administrative duties as well.

The Moscow branch (55°39′16″N 37°32′00″E / 55.6544°N 37.5334°E / 55.6544; 37.5334 (Astro Space Center, Moscow branch)Coordinates: 55°39′16″N 37°32′00″E / 55.6544°N 37.5334°E / 55.6544; 37.5334 (Astro Space Center, Moscow branch)) is itself divided into approximatedly eight divisions. These branches conduct research in Theoretical physics, the thermal history of the universe, various properties of extragalactic objects, and design and development of space and astronomy research equipment The research of the Moscow Branch enters other related areas of research.
