Finding Our Place in the Night Sky

Jennifer Howse (University of Calgary, Rothney Astrophysical Observatory, Canada)

 

 

The Convergence: Where the people of the land greet the sky project is the collaborative development of a scientific and Indigenous themed astronomy. Our primary theme is creating connections to the land and sky though traditional Indigenous Ways of Knowing and current RAO research initiatives. Time and space are cultural as well as astronomical and this exhibit welcomes diverse voices and represents our community’s relationship to the universe. Astronomy is the world’s oldest science and it is fundamental to the traditional conscious of the Indigenous peoples of Canada. Creating relevant Indigenous content for all of our spaces, programs, and engaging Indigenous students, is a priority for the Rothney Astrophysical Observatory and is part of the University of Calgary’s strategy ii’ taa’poh’to’p.
