Roman Hvezda, president of the ELI Beamlines Center, notes that science and art have been linked for a long time.
“Therefore, I am pleased that with this symbolic beam we can not only recall the shot of the first laser in 61 years, but also celebrate the tenth anniversary of the approval of the European Commission and the Ministry of the project of the ELI Beamlines Laser Center, Education, Youth and Sports in the Czech Republic.”
The headquarters of the Academy of Sciences was not chosen as the target of the beam by chance: the ELI Research Center in Dolní Břežany is part of its Institute of Physics.
