The final of the All-Russian competition "Star Relay Race", which has been held since 2003 under the auspices of the Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center, took place in Korolev and Moscow from April 14 to 17. This time, 150 schoolchildren from all over Russia came to the competition. They received awards from the hands of cosmonaut Andrei Fedyaev, a member of the SpaceX Crew-6 mission. The key partner and sponsor is the scientific and technological guild "Frontiers of Science".

The winners received memorable gifts and additional points to the Unified State Exam. Two participants of the scientific and technical section, the authors of the projects "Development of a cross-band repeater for the ISS Chelyabinsk-290" and "Voice assistant for a cosmonaut", were awarded special prizes - INFERIT Compact laptops from the Russian vendor "Inferit".

The guild "Frontiers of Science" strives to unite the efforts of the state, corporations, startups and the scientific community for the development of fundamental science. The mission of "Frontiers of Science" is to form a technological, scientific and educational foundation for the exploration of the Solar System.

The organizers include three tasks in the list of priorities of the competition: not only to convey modern knowledge about space to schoolchildren, but also to form interest in national history in this area, as well as to introduce talented children to the demanded competencies for future work in the industry. The participants visited museums on the territory of the RSC Energia complex, listened to lectures, including from test cosmonaut Oleg Blinov, who spoke in the mock-up of the Orlan spacesuit. The schoolchildren communicated with representatives of the industry, and were also able to visit the inside of full-size models of the basic block of the Mir and Salyut-3 stations, see the descent vehicle of Yuri Gagarin's Vostok spacecraft and the Voskhod-2 spacecraft, from which the world's first spacewalk was made.
