The International Year of Astronomy (IYA) in 2009 aimed to promote scientific awareness and improve astronomy education worldwide. Initiated in Italy and endorsed by UNESCO and the UN, IYA engages 125 countries in facilitating access to astronomy for the general public. With projects like 100 Hours of Astronomy and local initiatives in Finland—such as exhibitions, lectures, and hands-on activities—the celebration seeks to empower communities, promote gender balance, and preserve cultural astronomical heritage. Join us in discovering the universe!
