What is Astronomy and Indigenous Knowledge about?

Dr. Motheo Koitsiwe discusses growing up on a mountain in Botswana that sparked his interest in astronomy and indigenous knowledge. As a young boy, his grandmother taught him about the night sky through stories, songs, and poems, fueling his passion. The mountain holds spiritual significance and was where he learned about local plants and medicines. He hopes to set up a telescope there to share astronomical knowledge with children and preserve indigenous practices.
