Paul Curnow chats with me about Aboriginal Skies in Australia. He has been an astronomy lecturer at the Adelaide Planetarium for the past 30 years. After 3 decades of research, he is regarded as one of the world’s leading authorities on Australian Aboriginal night sky knowledge.
In 2004, Paul worked with the Lake Erie Nature & Science Center Planetarium in Ohio to create a show featuring Indigenous Australian stories of the night sky. He also serves as a consultant on Indigenous Astronomy for the Australian Space Agency and is a member of the Andy Thomas Space Foundation Education Advisory Committee.
