Star Stories: Our Clans Among the Stars

Comparison of Dark Constellations
Steven Gulberg & Alejandro Martin López
Cultures throughout the world have observed and used many phenomena of the night sky. This often included the grouping of stars into constellations or asterisms. Certain cultures also observed and identified features within the dark areas of the Milky Way where dust and gas block the light of the stars that they obscure. We discuss seven case studies of cultures across various geographical regions that feature dark constellations in their knowledge and traditions: the Maya (Mesoamerica), Inca (South American Andes), Moqoit (Argentina), Tupi (Brasil), Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders (Australia), Bugis (Indonesia), Xhosa, Sotho, Zulu, and Tswana (southern Africa), and Polynesians (Pacific).
Native Skywatchers
Since the first Native Skywatchers workshop in 2010, one of our primary goals is to create resources in a collaborative revitalization effort of Indigenous Astronomy starting with our own communities. From Sky Maps to Activities.
Observing the Big 5 of the African Sky
The Big 5 of the African Sky are five celestial objects that represent the best specimens of each type of deep-sky class: the Southern Pleaides (an open star cluster), omega Centauri (a globular cluster), the eta Carinae Nebula (a bright nebula), the Coal Sack (a dark nebula), and the Milky Way (a galaxy).
