EarthSky gives you daily updates on your cosmos and world. Our founder Deborah Byrd created the StarDate radio series in 1978. She launched the Earth & Sky radio series in 1991 and this website in 1994. The radio series ran daily until 2013, and, for a while, we were uncertain of this website’s future. But today – nearly 30 years after its launch – EarthSky.org is still going strong, thanks to you. Meanwhile, with the increasing use of ad blockers online, EarthSky – like most websites – has seen a drop in ad revenues. We need the support of our loyal followers and community now more than ever! We’re a small team. But we work hard to bring you the night sky information and science news so many of you tell us you enjoy.
