Invitation
Their stories, and the story of the universe they reveal
Since the dawn of time, humans have looked up at the night sky and wondered what lies beyond. Cosmic HerStory brings together the stories of women around the world who shaped astronomy by capturing and deciphering the great vastness of the cosmos, and of our own young women in Bangladesh who are photographing it through telescopes today.
We warmly invite you to the opening of the exhibition, to hear their stories and the story of the universe they reveal.
Organised by Dūrbin and CASSA
