ClassGraphic Join us for a fascinating tour of the universe, beginning with our solar system and journeying through star-forming nebulae, colliding galaxies, and the mysteries of black holes. Our guide will be Diamonds Everywhere: Awe-Inspiring Astronomy Discoveries by Tom Kerss (HarperCollins, 2023), a richly illustrated collection of astronomy topics presented in clear, accessible essays for the curious mind. Each week, we will explore phenomena such as planetary aurorae, star birth, and cosmic collisions, with discussions supported by striking images from the Hubble and James Webb Space Telescopes and a range of curated videos. Awe-Inspiring Astronomy welcomes everyone, from those newly curious about the cosmos to seasoned astronomy enthusiasts. Come share in the wonder and expand your sense of the universe with a weekly dose of awe.
