Astronomy, from the Philippines
Bringing the stars closer to Filipinos
through art, storytelling, and immersive digital experiences.
About
The sky is for everyone
Egg Nebula began as a quiet place to look up. When everyday pressure felt heavy, the sky made it feel a little smaller. We wanted to hand that same feeling to someone else.
So we explain the night sky the way a friend would: in plain words, with drawings and stories, from where we stand in the Philippines.
You don't need a telescope or a science degree. Start with the sky above your own roof tonight, and we'll explain what you're seeing.
