Astronomy Book

"Шпациранє по вселени"

Published in May 2026.

Wanting to create something special resonated with me for quite a long time, and then one day I realized what it is. A book! And not any kind a book, an Illustrated Astronomy book for kids - originally in Rusyn language.

You see, I'm Rusyn. Rusyns, or more precisely Pannonian Rusyns are a national minority. There is around (at best) 30K Rusyns in the world. I'm coming from a small vilage Ruski Kerestur, Serbia. Ruski Kerestur is the cultural centre of the Pannonian Rusyns with population of ~5K. To my knowledge, I'm the only Pannonian Rusyn with a PhD in Astrophysics! Knowing that Astronomy books don't exists in my native language, I decided to changed that. Over 4.5 years, as a hobby, I have written, illustrated and designed astronomy book for kids.

Book title is "Шпациранє по вселени", which means 'A walk through the universe'.
