Karol Wójcicki

Passionate photographer of the night sky, populariser of astronomy, science journalist and TV presenter. Creator of the largest astronomical fanpage in Poland “With your head in the stars” on Facebook.

He travels all over the world in pursuit of solar eclipses, and spends two months a year behind the Arctic Circle hunting for auroras. At the same time, he loves to lie on the terrace at his home, watching for meteors falling from the sky.

He has turned his passion for astronomy into a way of life. He organised one of the largest joint observations of the night sky in the world (for 12 thousand people) and many other popular science events. Frequent guest on television and radio programmes.
