Planetarium Aboriginal Astronomy

Stories in the Stars – Aboriginal Astronomy

Explore Indigenous Australian astronomy in this fascinating mobile Planetarium show.

European night sky stories are familiar to many people. However the Aboriginal stories of the southern skies are less well known.

Stories in the Stars shows children a new way—the oldest way—of looking at the night sky.

“Children enjoyed this activity – very educational.”
Samantha, Inspire
