Astronomy in Native Cultures & How to Make Sun Daggers with NWA Space
This video by Dr. Katherine Auld of NWA Space shares just a few of the ways that Native American cultures display their connections to astronomy.

The end of the video shares how you can create a calendar in your back yard with a stick, a few rocks, and a spot open to the Sun.
