  • The best prepared podcast I’ve ever listen to

    Nancy and Pete do an absolutely outstanding job both at picking topics and especially at preparing a podcast that is far superior to the traditional format of straight interview used by many others. I also especially love the episodes on their own personal lives and experiences.

Q: How has collaboration with organizations like NASA and the National Federation of the Blind impacted your work?

Q: What were some of the early technical steps in creating tactile astronomy books?

I started by visiting the Perkins School for the Blind, talking to librarians, exploring tactile options, and eventually creating a pathway from basic tactile methods to more durable thermoform pictures, while also developing accessible text like Touch the Stars.
