PROVINCIAL DAY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY.Since 2019, the people of Cordoba celebrate the Provincial Day of Science and Technology every June 18.It is a tribute to Alberto Maiztegui, the physicist and professor, who passed away on June 18, 2018.
Alberto Maiztegui was an inescapable figure in the teaching of physics and science in Argentina.He was always linked to Córdoba, but he was born in Gualeguay, in 1920.
He died in Córdoba at the age of 98.
The story of how this man from Entre Ríos became a physicist and a Cordovan is very random.
He studied Physics and Mathematics teachers.
There he met Ernesto and Jorge Sábato.With the latter he published in 1952 Introduction to physics.It was the study material of more than five million students.
Then, he decided to move to Córdoba twice for random reasons, according to what he recounted in this story.
