How Big Is Astronomy in South Africa Really?
Hi, I'm Masego, an 11th grade learner at Mabothe Secondary High School, and I'm super interested in astronomy. I've always been fascinated by science, and I think it all started when I watched documentaries on the Da Vinci channel about famous scientists like Thomas Edison, Nikola Tesla, Einstein, and Isaac Newton. There's something about those stars that truly draws me in - I find the universe mysterious and cool! I'm curious about pursuing a career in astronomy in South Africa. How big of a field is astronomy in South Africa, and would it be challenging to find job opportunities? I've heard some students say they can't find jobs in the field. Are there many organizations or institutions in SA that focus on astronomy, and what kind of roles are available? I'd love to hear from you all in the science field about your experiences and advice.

What type of club should I open in my high school?
Hey everyone! I'm a rising junior and I have a strong interest in artificial intelligence. While I don't have much prior experience, I'll be doing a research internship in data science this summer. I've been thinking about starting two clubs next year. One for the International Research Olympiad and another for the Technology Student Association. But I'm still unsure if those will be the right fit or worth the effort. I really want to start a club related to artificial intelligence, but I’m not exactly sure what kind of AI-focused club would make the most sense or be the most engaging for students. If you have any ideas or suggestions, I’d love to hear them!
