Astronomy didn’t start with Greeks, Indigenous Australians were 1st astronomers in the world
The connection Indigenous Australians have with the night sky is being communicated through the storytelling of a new generation of Indigenous astronomers.
For 60,000 years, Indigenous people formed a unique relationship with the land, but they also knew the sky.
Professor Ray Norris from Western Sydney University and the CSIRO says there is rich knowledge of the night sky embedded in the songs and stories of Indigenous Australians.
“We found that people thousands of years ago in Australia were clearly staring up at the sky wondering ‘how the heck does that eclipse work’– and sometimes they come to amazing conclusions,” he told NITV.
“You read about this, you hear about this encoded in the songs and stories.”
The Life Code: A Sky Full Of Secrets
Wiradjuri woman Kirsten Banks has made it her career mission to share those stories.
Working as a tour guide at the Sydney Observatory, the physics student says it is a fascinating area of study.
“The thought that Indigenous Australians have used the sky as astronomers for tens of thousands of years, or even before anyone else, is awesome to me.”
She plans on sharing the cultural knowledge as she trains to become an archeo-astrophysicist.
“I love that we have such a rich culture from this land and that they used the sky similar in ways that we use it now. It’s just amazing,” she said…

Josh Kennedy’s six goals not enough as West Coast lose to Collingwood by eight points
COLLINGWOOD have booted the last five goals of the game to snatch an eight-point victory over West Coast, denting the Eagles’ AFL finals ambitions.
The Magpies trailed at every change but came alive in the last quarter, overturning a 24-point deficit to win 13.15 (93) to 13.7 (85) at Etihad Stadium on Sunday.
Jordan de Goey and Jamie Elliott played match-winning hands as the Magpies surged past the Eagles, led by Josh Kennedy’s six-goal haul.
De Goey kicked four goals in the second half after being sent forward by coach Nathan Buckley.
The midfielder ran down Liam Duggan with a magnificent effort in fourth quarter time-on.
All of a sudden, the 22,927 in attendance – the smallest crowd for this fixture since the Magpies left Victoria Park – sounded like a full house.
Elliott – who finished with three goals of his own – put Collingwood in front before Alex Fasolo added a late sealer.
The stirring win will be a tonic for under-fire coach Buckley, but embarrass opposite Adam Simpson.

Emily Ratajkowski: Slender figure + ample chest to pose NAKED for LOVE Magazine
She’s no stranger to showing off her figure but Emily Ratajkowski shocked fans when she posed naked for LOVE Magazine.
On Friday, the model left her entire body exposed when she shared shots on social media, with fans in awe of her incredibly slender physique .
The 26-year-old model completely revealed her breasts, as well as a portion of her lower region, in the risque photos.
In the nude snaps, the stunner wore only a short, boy-cut wig with full-front bangs, a pair of dangly earrings, and a necklace.
The first photo flashed a bit of the star’s ribs as she leaned up against a table and hunched her back forward.
In the second frame, the British-born beauty didn’t hold anything back, once again displaying the prominence of her ribs while propping herself up with her forearms on top of the table.
For the online image, the celeb hid her nipples behind red heart emojis and protected her modesty by placing the letters in her name over the sensitive spot.
