Citizen scientists report global rapid reductions in the visibility of stars
One of the bad things of our modern lifestyle/civilization, most of the population hasn’t got access to a dark sky. I think of myself as privileged since I have the possibility to visit a Bortle 3 or 4 location in less than an hour of driving.<p>Do yourself a favor, try to visit a really dark place, ideally with binoculars and a sky map and you’ll feel again connected with the Cosmos.<p>Here is a very good map to find a dark place: <a href="https://www.lightpollutionmap.info" rel="nofollow">https://www.lightpollutionmap.info</a><p>Some extra info on the Bortle Scale: <a href="https://astrobackyard.com/the-bortle-scale/" rel="nofollow">https://astrobackyard.com/the-bortle-scale/</a>
