Astana, Kazakhstan (August 18, 2025). I don’t have my camera, these are just a few shots taken with my phone. I’m in Kazakhstan for a library conference, I’ll be back with my usual content next Monday.

Nur Alem, Astana, Kazakhstan,

Nur-Alem is the main symbol of EXPO Nur-Sultan, a giant spherical building with a diameter of 80 meters. On top of the ball are two wind generators that generate power, thereby reducing the energy consumption from the grid.

The structure consists of eight levels, each of which tells about one of the alternative energy sources – “space Energy”, “Solar Energy”, “wind Energy”, “biomass Energy”, “Kinetic energy”, “water Energy”.

On the eighth level is the Museum “Future Nur-Sultan”, and the base of the sphere, with an area of 5000 square meters. the national pavilion occupies a total of 500 meters. It is divided into two zones: acquaintance with Kazakhstan and “Creative energy”.

The Museum of future energy presents projects of scientists of Kazakhstan and startup projects of young specialists in the field of “green” energy sources.
