Remember how excited you felt the first time you looked at the moon through a telescope?
How you wanted to scan the sky and see what other hidden gems were hiding in the darkness?

Now imagine that you were not welcome or allowed to look through the telescope. Millions of people are denied this opportunity because astronomy facilities are not accessible to them.

This book provides strategies and resources to remove barriers and make observing sessions welcoming and accessible for people of all abilities. If you are an astronomy educator, you can help make the universe accessible!

And if you are an astronomy enthusiast, use this state-by-state guide to find accessible destinations.

"When you've got all five senses and both your legs work, it's easy to miss
how often society neglects those for whom this isn't true.  In Everyone's
Universe, Noreen Grice, a uniquely inspired champion of astronomy
education, has identified activities and places in America where, no matter your level of
sensory or physical limitation, the universe is accessible to all.  As it
should be. "

Neil deGrasse Tyson
Astrophysicist & Director, Hayden Planetarium
American Museum of Natural History

"In a practical and powerful way, Everyone's Universe establishes the
Twenty First century paradigm for engaging everyone in the wonder of
astronomical exploration. The experience, innovation, and passion that
Noreen Grice brings together in this new resource is certain to help
create a new movement of backyard astronomers."

Mark Riccobono, Executive Director of the Jernigan Institute,
National Federation of the Blind

"Most of the universe may be out of reach, but it's not inaccessible.
Noreen Grice is determined to make it more accessible. She has pioneered
Accessible Astronomy for nearly three decades and has developed
innovations that download the sky into the hands of those whose grasp it
eluded. Her new book is a marvel of encouragement and practical advice. It
will certainly expand the universe of Accessible Astronomy. Everyone's
Universe shows how it's already being done and how easy it is to get
everyone in touch with the sky. "

Dr. E.C. Krupp, Director
Griffith Observatory

"Noreen Grice has done a great job creating a must-have guide on how to
make the universe more accessible."
