“Star Tres” is a group made up of three Chilean astronomers, Carolina Agurto, Karina Rojas and Javiera Rey, who are dedicated to the explanation and astronomical dissemination through different digital platforms, but with a simple and more playful language . As for the name of the group, they chose it in reference to the famous series “Star Trek” and through their website and Youtube channel they deliver tips to better appreciate certain events, such as eclipses, the rain of stars, among others. They recently released their first publication, which consists of an Astrocalendar, which highlights monthly a milestone relevant to both astronomy and human knowledge, including in April the journey of Yuri Gagarin, the first man to travel to the orbit the Earth, or in September the end of the Unmanned Cassini-Huygens space mission to Saturn. In addition, the publication features a series of cut-out illustrated pictures. “People are interested when things happen in the sky and sometimes it’s not easy to find information collected in one place,” said astronomer Javiera Rey.Those who wish to purchase this calendar can find it in the USACH Editorial Library, in the All Store Usach de la VIME and in Buscalibre.com, with a value of $5000.
