For your submission, you need to prepare a short text.
The text can be:
an astronomical and scientific commentary
a classical Greek (or another culture’s) sky story
an original story or a poem (any kind of topic) with some astronomical details or with an event that happens under the night sky (including the name of some stars or constellations or other sky objects visible with the naked eye)
The text should be about one page in text length.
Then create an mp3 audio clip of yourself narrating your text.
Ssubmit both the text (as a .docx or .pdf file) and the mp3 audio clip here for grading. You are not required to submit your entry to the pages of stars contest, but you are strongly encouraged to do so.
