Illuminating the Effects of Light Pollution
- newman8r 11y agoI moved to one of the darkest spots in California (actually just submitted to Apply HN as I want to make a tech park there). So many people in so cal haven't experienced a true night sky - it's like seeing the ocean for the first time if you don't live near the coast. Even people who have been to dark spots often don't think about how they need to observe without a moon in the sky and that they need to give their eyes enough time to adjust to the dark (lots of people KNOW about this but for some reason don't think about it when they are camping)
