ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Malak is an astronomy student with a love of communication.

Her passion for the astronomy ignited when she was 11. Mesmerized, Malak searched for answers to everything she wondered about the universe, buying her first (of many) astronomy books: “The Stars” - inspiring the naming of this website.

Unmotivating to Malak’s big questions about space were the serious, scary physics jargon and how she had to “find out when she was older”.

With an impatient curiosity, she sought to bring the vast universe a little closer to Earth’s average non-physicist. Explaining her passion to friends and family was just the beginning, with her aim now spanning anyone who asks!
