Ancient stargazing meets modern astronomy to share Aboriginal stories of night sky

For millennia Aboriginal people have gazed to the heavens at night.

They would look to the stars for navigation, to mark seasons, and to explain the mysteries of the Dreamtime.

Now Astrotourism WA is seeking to collect and share these stories.

CEO and founder Carol Redford is recruiting Aboriginal people to help create an Aboriginal astronomy tourism trail to help people learn about the magic of night skies from Aboriginal elders and guides.
