“Because NASA wouldn’t take us, and Galileo isn’t hiring.”
Welcome, fellow space enthusiasts, moon-gazers, and accidental UFO witnesses! You have officially stumbled upon the most elite, highly unqualified, and ridiculously enthusiastic group of sky nerds in the universe – Eagle Mornings with Steve & Karen’s SKY NERD Club!
Are we actual astronomers? No. Did we apply for NASA? Also no, but we’re pretty sure we wouldn’t have passed the math test. Have we stayed up way past our bedtimes just to see a blurry speck in the sky and excitedly yell, “THERE IT IS!” as if we discovered a new planet? Absolutely.
We are Steve & Karen – two radio hosts who recently realized that our mutual love for space, rockets, stars, and whatever that mysterious light was over Karen’s house last night was too strong to ignore. So, in true space pioneer fashion, we did what any self-respecting, underqualified but overexcited individuals would do: we made t-shirts and declared ourselves OFFICIAL.
What does the SKY NERD Club do?
– We stare at the sky way too much.
– We geek out over meteor showers, planetary alignments, and the Moon like it’s a celebrity sighting.
– We attempt (and fail) to take photos of rocket launches with our smartphones.
– We discuss sky trash – because not everything twinkling in the sky is a star (looking at you, defunct satellites and lost astronaut tools).
– We remain on high alert for UFOs because, let’s be honest, the truth is out there, and we want to be the ones who see it first.
– We mispronounce celestial object names with confidence.
– We provide EXCELLENT, 100% scientifically unverified explanations of cosmic phenomena.
Who can join?
Do you have eyes? Can you look up? Do you get excited when you see the ISS pass overhead, even though it looks like a moving dot? Then congratulations! You’re in. Membership is free, and our only requirement is that you enthusiastically shout, “SKY NERDS ASSEMBLE!” at least once when spotting something cool in the sky.
Our Motto:
“We came. We saw. We pointed at the sky like we knew what we were talking about.”
Join us on this journey through the cosmos, or at least until the next cool celestial event happens. We may not be astronauts, but we are wearing official SKY NERD Club shirts, and that’s basically the same thing.
