DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Rheanne Jimeno (Space Generation Advisory Council)\n
 Astronomy can feel hard to reach— full of numbers\, distances\, and idea
 s that are tough to picture. Egg Nebula is a digital science communication
  platform that treats stories and art as the way in\, turning complex conc
 epts and data into experiences the public can actually understand and enjo
 y.\nAt the center of this talk is a digital planetarium where users trace 
 their own shapes among the stars and build stories around them. The idea g
 rew from an in-person event where children\, asked to find their own patte
 rns in the sky\, came up with strikingly different readings of the same st
 ars — much like how early Filipino traditions saw figures such as Balati
 k and Moroporo. Turning the planetarium into a space where people create a
 nd tell their own star stories\, rather than just watch\, makes astronomy 
 both easier to grasp and more engaging.\nMore widely\, the talk shows how 
 stories and pictures help people make sense of hard\, data-heavy science. 
  Using Egg Nebula's projects as examples\, the talk lays out simple design
  ideas for building digital\, story-driven astronomy experiences\, and sha
 res how the platform is being brought back and grown for wider use.\n\nhtt
