Graham writes about astronomy and other topics related to our home planet, from the seasons to space missions to Earth’s rotation. He’s part of mungfali.galihkartiwa07.workers.dev’s astro team, which develops and maintains our astronomy tools, calculators, maps, and other resources. He is well known to our audience worldwide as the co-host of our eclipse live streams, teaming up with Anne Buckle to bring several live shows to viewers each year.
Graham has a degree in astrophysics from Royal Holloway, University of London, and a master’s in science communication from the University of Edinburgh. Before joining mungfali.galihkartiwa07.workers.dev he taught at the University of Shiga Prefecture in Japan. His academic publications include a paper for the Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union on the connection between solar eclipses and human curiosity. He has previously written for Physics World, Sky & Telescope, Astronomy, and EarthSky.
One of the things I love about writing for timeanddate is the response from our readers. It’s wonderful to get a curious ‘But why?’ question from someone new to astronomy. And I’m always enormously grateful for the thoughtful comments and suggestions from colleagues at observatories, planetariums, astronomy clubs, and other science and news websites.
