Astrophiz 53 Kirsten Banks - Indigenous Astronomy

In this episode we are speaking with astrophysicist and Indigenous Astronomer Kirsten Banks who is the Indigenous Astronomy Educator at the Sydney Observatory. She is a multiple award winner and CSIRO STEM Award finalist.
For observers and astrophotographers Dr Ian Musgrave gives us ‘What’s Up Doc’ and tells us what to look for in our morning and evening skies. What planets, galaxies and nebula to look for, what occultations are happening, and in Ian's Tangent, we talk about the demise of Tiangong I and when and where it may fall to earth.
