Hi Everybody!

It's so amazing to see everybody celebrating astronomy this month and sharing what you are doing with the AWB community!

Our Beauty without Borders program organized by @Kazuya Ayani (NC, Japan) has just gotten started and already has gained a lot of attention!

Forbes magazine wrote a great article about GAM featuring the program and Global Star Party and some quotes from @Gianluca Masi (NC, Italy).
