little known in Chile is the existing worldview in Rapa Nui, a place that is more popularly known as "Easter Island." According to its traditions magically lost in a remote time, astronomers Polynesian felt a special interest in the starry sky, for some of the brightest planets, the positions and phases of the moon, and the place occupied by the Sun the sky during different seasons. They used all these natural parameters especially for navigation and to be at peace with the universe both external and internal. The Sun called him "Ra to ", the moon," Mahina " "Matariki" the open star cluster Pleiades stars located towards the constellation Taurus, which in English means "little eyes", "Matamea" the red planet Mars and "Rei Tanga" to the star Alpha Scorpius or Antares. This is just the beginning of a wonderful trip to do in this blog to make it the place it belongs to the ancient and wise culture that lives by looking at the stars from "the Navel of the World."
