Heather, Rae Barker and Matthew Cimone interview Mike Simmons, founder, and CEO of Astronomy for Equity. Astronomy for Equity uses the proven ability of astronomy to foster inclusive programs that inspire, educate, and provide hope for unserved communities.

The discussion explores Mike’s personal history with astronomy and why he founded his organization; the importance of building community and hope by bringing telescopes to refugees and others without accessibility to see the stars; why you should make the Trek to view a solar eclipse; and more!
