AstroTours.org Featured in Bold Journey Magazine!

We’re honored to share that AstroTours.org founder Luke Huxley was recently featured in Bold Journey Magazine, a publication that highlights inspiring leaders and entrepreneurs across the country.

In the interview, Luke reflects on the values that shaped AstroTours.org — especially generosity, adaptability, and curiosity — and shares how a legendary Australian astronomer known as Space Gandalf helped spark a lifelong mission to bring the stars closer to Earth.

“Greg Quicke didn’t just teach astronomy. He shared it — with passion, patience, and deep generosity,” Luke explains. “Every night under the stars, I carry Greg’s lessons with me.”

You’ll also learn more about the heart behind AstroTours.org and what makes our tours unique. Guided stargazing in Boulder, Denver, Castle Rock, and Breckenridge and our free youth astronomy programs, everything we do is rooted in the belief that the cosmos belongs to everyone.

This story offers a deeper look at why we do what we do — and how one person’s starlight can ripple across the globe.

Thank you for continuing to support local, science-based, family-run experiences like ours. We can’t wait to see you on a tour soon.
