The back cover. Welcome to Sky Country offers a glimpse of what generations of First Peoples have experienced by studying the night sky. Over thousands of years, the First Peoples have passed down stories of Sky Country, connecting us to deep time and ancient skies. To understand Sky Country is to understand the concept of 'as above, so below', where the sky acts like a mirror that reflects conditions of the land and waters. The Sun, Moon and stars serve as a map of Country, showing us routes to travel. They work as a clock and a calendar, telling us how to mark time and when the seasons will change. They are a source of inspiration and guidance for storytelling, music, art and dance. Exploring everything from twinkling stars and comets, to planets and phases of the Moon, and featuring stunning artworks and photos, Sky Country comes alive on the pages of this book. There is also a travel section where you can discover destinations with clear views of the stars, museums and galleries, sites of significance and more.
