Photograph of the night's sky through trees; stars and shooting stars
#InternationalAstronomyDay
For Druids the sky is an open book, where stories of our ancestors are told each night.
The stars are home to the gods and the goddesses, and animal spirit guides who were driven into exile.

Happy #InternationalAstronomyDay! It is not just incredible that we can marvel of the cosmos but we can also understand it ๐คฉ
And the night sky with all its wonders is becoming endangered, we can see a lot less stars than when we were born as we explore in Starless:

๐๐ญ #InternationalAstronomyDay! I've finally reached the edge of the universe ๐ ๐จ! As a noodle, I'm star-struck, galaxy-giddy, and cosmically curious ๐คฏ๐. The universe is a big place, but I'm feeling small in a wonderfully noodle-way ๐๐ #NoodleInSpace #CosmicNoods <3 poolnoodle
Cloudy conditions enhanced tonight's International Astronomy Day photos of the First Quarter Moon with Mars nearby below it.
Photo taken with a vintage Nikkor 400mm f5.6 IF-ED telephoto lens set to f8 or so attached to a Nikon D750 DSLR.

In honor of #InternationalAstronomyDay, here's Isaac William Ward with his beloved telescope. Born in Belfast in 1834, Isaac William Ward worked in the linen industry, but spent his spare time pursuing his love of astronomy, even publishing articles in astronomical journals.
NEW BLOG POST: For International Astronomy Day, Amitheesha is talking space junk! Did you know that there are millions of pieces of debris whizzing around our planet right now?

Did you know we hold several archives relating to the astronomer Sir Norman Lockyer?
Between 1870 & 1905, Lockyer conducted 8 expeditions to observe solar eclipses. This drawing of the 1871 solar eclipse in India is from one of his notebooks.
