What first hooked you into astronomy?
Hi there, my name is Liev and I’m a graphic design student at Leeds College of Art in the UK. I am basing my final major project on astronomy. I would like to know what first ‘hooked’ you into astronomy; what first captivated you about it, or maybe who.
For me, it was discovering my dad’s 1978 book The New Challenge of The Stars by Patrick Moore and David Hardy. It was the paintings of Mars and Neptune specifically, and the idea of other worlds orbiting the sun. I was about six.
If you would like to add something that could help to answer my question, that would be most helpful, and thank you. I will use this research to help develop and produce my final piece.
