STARMUS brings together Nobel Prize winners, astronauts, musicians and science enthusiasts for several days of talks, performances and cosmic inspiration.

The clear skies and lack of light pollution on La Palma , in the Canary Islands off the northwestern coast of Africa , make it a haven for astronomy lovers.

In 2007 , the island became the world's first Starlight Reserve , a protected area committed to preserving the quality of the night sky.

Daisy Dobrijevic attended the International Astronomy Conference in La Palma , Spain .

She was inspired by the island's recovery from a volcanic eruption that devastated entire communities.

The event highlighted the vulnerability of the world's most precious sky-observing location.

Astrophysicist Jill Tarter talked about searching for intelligent extraterrestrial technology.
