The duties of the scientific director of the meeting were assigned to the author of these lines. On July 5, the organizers of the rally had already arrived in Pirkuli, where they were met by tireless construction workers led by S. I. Sorin. The weather was rainy until July 8, and I didn't want to open the camp in the rain.
Meanwhile, delegations of participants from Arkhangelsk and Ashgabat, from Tartu and Magadan, from Crimea and Novosibirsk and other cities arrived in Baku one after another.
They were received and arranged by A.M. Aliyev, the inspector of the Ministry of Education of the USSR V. I. Pikovsky and the referent of the Central Council of the VAGO V. G. Popov.
On July 8, the opening ceremony of the First All-Union Conference of Young Astronomy Enthusiasts (as the meeting was officially called) took place in the conference hall of the Academy of Sciences of the Azerbaijan SSR. The conference participants were greeted by Deputy Minister of Education of the Republic of Azerbaijan R. A. Balyan, First Secretary of the Central Committee of the J1KCM E. M. Kafarova, Academician-Secretary of the Academy of Sciences of the Azerbaijani SSR M. S. Kashkai. Welcome telegrams from Soviet cosmonaut pilots and major Soviet astronomers were read out. The report on the tasks of the work of young astronomy enthusiasts was made by the author, and the chairman of the youth section of the VAGO Central Committee, V. V. Martynenko, made a co-report.
The next morning, the participants of the rally took six buses to Pirkuli. On July 8, the weather was fine and the soil dried out quickly under the hot rays of the southern sun, so that nothing interfered with the grand opening of the camp. All the participants, divided into six squads, lined up at the flag site. There were also two more detachments — a construction team and a leadership team. The guests were greeted by the director of the Shamakhi Astrophysical Observatory, G. F. Sultanov, and the heads of regional party and Komsomol organizations. The camp's flag was raised solemnly. Regular work has begun.
In the afternoon, lectures, theoretical classes of sections, a seminar of the heads of astronomical circles, and the processing of observations were held. All participants were divided into six sections: the Sun (led by A. A. Kolchin, Volgograd), planets and the Moon (V. F. Kartashov, Alma Ata), meteors (V. V. Martynenko, Simferopol), variable stars (V. I. Demkin, Temir-Tau), astroclimate (S. S. Voynov, Novosibirsk), Astrophotography and astrophotography (S. I. Sorin, Baku).
The children looked with interest at the telescopes built by Baku schoolchildren. Each participant was allowed to work in two sections. Astronomers from the Shamakhi Observatory and visiting scientists were involved in the lectures. The lectures of Doctor of Physico-mathematical Sciences G. D. Mameydbeyli on the first Azerbaijani astronomer and mathematician Nasireddin Tusi (1201-1274) and Candidate of Physico-mathematical Sciences O. H. Huseynov on the late stage of relativistic compression of a star were listened with great interest. Despite such a "scary" name, the lecture turned out to be understandable and, judging by the questions of the guys, understandable.
Even more interesting was the lecture by A. V. Zasov (Moscow, Traffic police) on quasars and pulsars. The lectures did not have the character of a systematic course, they highlighted some interesting problems of modern science or the history of its development. At the end of the meeting, a Q&A evening, a kind of press conference, was held in the tower of the 2-meter telescope of the Shamakhi Observatory. Corresponding Member of the USSR Academy of Sciences O. A. Melnikov, Professor V. V. Radzievsky, Candidates of Physico-mathematical Sciences S. M. Azizov, V. A. Bronshten, S. G. Mammadov and Scientific Secretary of the Central Institute of Astrophysics of the GDR Werner Schoeneich, who worked at the Shamakhi Observatory at that time, also took part in these events.
