@People_Of_Space's Threads
Ok, going to jump into today's topics ....
In addition to the ancient Assyrian astronomy I wrote about yesterday, I also wanted to touch on Indigenous Australian astronomy. - which really interests me.
It also pre-dates Assyrian astronomy, which is fascinating!

Let me just pre-face this thread by saying that I am in no way an expert of this topic. In fact, I am only just learning about it myself as I have a deep interest in this field.
I'm drawn to how different cultures in different times in history have seen and used the sky.

But if you're looking to delve a little further, i'd recommend following these subject matter experts themselves:
@AboriginalAstro
@AstroKirsten
@DuaneHamacher
@KrystalDeNapoli
Let me know of others too, so I can share their handles- am sure I am missing some great folks!

Hi everyone! :) I'm Ute (pronounced like “Oohter” with the emphasis on the first syllable. Equivalents are Audrey in English, Aude/Odette in French), and first of all I would like to thank @Taraustralis for the privilege of letting me host “People of Space” this week!
@Taraustralis Another special thank you goes to my direct predecessors, @marmatheghost and @martinesrymd, for their great contributions! Both have inspired some of the things I intend to talk about over the next 7 days.
@Taraustralis @MarmaTheGhost @martinesrymd Tara created @people_of_space so people from all walks of life could talk about their passion to a larger audience. Her intention will in fact also be this week’s motto: “Space is for Everyone”.
Welcome aboard; enjoy the ride! :)

What were obstacles and traps when I started in astrophotography, or in general: "What should I pay attention to, when I begin in astrophotography?"

Well, first, a little advisory:
I really can tell what kind of problems you encounter when you begin because...
I'm still beginning 😬😬

So!
The first issue for me have been: I did not know my camera well and what it can do.
Almost any camera can do at least a nice astro landscape.
With the right settings, you could even capture the milky way with a high-end smartphone.
