Our ancestors tracked these alignments using only the sky — no telescopes, no apps, just keen eyes and deep curiosity.
🧭 From this came calendars, rituals, & eventually, the science of astronomy itself.
Halloween, in a sense, is a festival of celestial geometry. 🎃

To ancient skywatchers, these halfway points weren’t just dates — they were cosmic thresholds.
Moments when the veil between light and dark, life and death, summer and winter… felt thin.
That’s why Halloween echoes with both celebration and mystery. 🌒

Couldn’t agree more! Vivian’s gift for sparking wonder & awe is extraordinary. She lead our #NASA-funded Eclipse Ambassadors program (reached ~200k people in 47 states) & showed the power of eclipses to #unite. #Australia will be #eclipse central — 2 totals in the next 5 yrs + an annular in 2035!🧪🔭☀️

And I was so lucky to be at the same conference Vivian was heading “Down Under” for. What an absolute treasure she is! Her talk has got us all inspired and excited for our solar eclipse in 2028!
