Thank you... I was surprised there was no mention of light pollution in the article itself.<p>My parents now live in Wyoming and the sad thing, to me, is that the few times I&#x27;ve been out to visit, it&#x27;s been overcast the whole time.  I remember as a young child in rural Arizona seeing many more stars in the sky than I ever see today...  I just don&#x27;t get out far enough to really see a more pure sky.  Only thing that might get me on a cruise in fact.
