    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    This week as Venus becomes lost in the evening twilight, we have a Harvest Moon to light up the autumn sky. However, first of all, in a galaxy, far, far away, something has happened. Situated in the constellation of Pegasus amongst the billions of galaxies that exist in that region of space, there is one particular galaxy where a star has exploded, or to coin a phrase 'gone nova.' This occurrence is nothing new, but what is interesting is that only now is the light from the supernova reaching us

Perhaps having watched the waxing and waning of the Moon throughout the month or shown an interest to know the name of a bright star, there are a number of ways to encourage children, youths, and teenagers across the region.

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    This week as Venus keeps her head just above the horizon to stay clear of the late August evening twilight, a second eclipse this month graces our skies on Friday. As we head into the last full week of August, Venus, once high in sky after sunset, begins to become intertwined in the late summer twilight, with the ‘Evening Star’ on view for just shy of about an hour and a half before dipping below the horizon.
