Every year, on a clear day in May, people look up at the stars and celebrate National Astronomy Day. Astronomy clubs and groups use this day to teach people about stars and often hold public viewing events, workshops and family activities to increase awareness about the profession and hobby.

Even if you can’t make it to an event, you can always create one right at home with the Laserpod Orb from NerdSeven. If you’ve ever wanted to see what the universe looked like just after the big bang, then the LaserPod light show is as close as you’re going to get!

Designed by renowned UK light artist Chris Levine, the LaserPod uses thee electronic lasers as well as blue and purple LEDs. Together, the LaserPod gives a super sensory experience. The intense light energy is projected through a single crystal and the output of this galaxy-birthing device can only be described as awe-inspiring.

So on May 2, 2009, whether you’re enjoying the National Astronomy Day events with the masses, or creating a private galactic light show, enjoy the sights and try not to feel too little in the vastness of it all!
