This month we present more magnificent creatures of the HITS garden in our calendar – Dragonflies. With over 5,000 species, they're the first winged insects to inhabit our planet. They're colorful, fast, and come in all sizes. They're acrobats of the air.

At HITS we rely on math daily to express ideas, describe relationships and phenomena objectively and to develop models and theories. You could even say that math is the language of science. That’s why we celebrate it today and every day.
Happy #PiDay! Happy International Day of Mathematics!
