Explore the Universe with Dr. Kirsten Banks - aka AstroKirsten!

I’m an astrophysicist and science communicator with a deep love for the stars, here to make the mysteries of the cosmos fun and accessible for everyone. Whether you're a curious beginner or a seasoned space enthusiast, this channel is all about diving deep into the wonders of space, one stellar story at a time.

I recently completed my PhD at UNSW, where I studied evolved stars to unlock the 13+ billion-year history of the Milky Way galaxy. You've probably seen my shorter videos floating around, but here we take things to the next level - more details, more science, and more spacey goodness!

Got a burning question about space? I'd love to hear from you! Reach out through my website’s contact form, and let’s explore the universe together!
