I am delighted to collaborate with Kainaat Studios on their inspiring initiative Eclipse in Our Shared Sky in my role as IAU OAE National Astronomy Education Coordinator for Pakistan and National Coordinator for Astronomers Without Borders. This project is especially close to my heart.
On September 7β8, 2025, the lunar eclipse will unfold with totality visible to more than 6 billion people across four continents. At a time when the world often feels divided, this celestial event offers us a rare chance to pause, look up, and share a profound moment of wonder together under one sky.
To make this experience truly inclusive, Kainaat Studios has created resources tailored for the Global South. Their website hosts videos and materials in English, Urdu and Hindi making the eclipse accessible to communities across Asia and Africa where most of the audience is expected to join in.
π The website features:
πΈ Local timings for the eclipse
πΈ Educational videos for both children and adults
πΈ A guide on safe viewing and photography
πΈ Fun, hands-on activities for schools
