looked up, didn't see anything moving

got fixated with how bright my ceiling light is from outside

seems like the night sky just gets less visible each year

I guess it's more visible in colder months though.. or is it?

I want to see like a truly clear sky, like they used to have it before electric light

ah well. I'll just post on TWW instead

Are you in a city? Light pollution makes the night sky look like shit. Go out in the middle of nowhere and you can see like a billion stars once you've been outside for a bit and your eyes have adjusted.

^i still want to try that sometime

Sorry to triple post. Saw this on facebook, made me think it was kinda like what justin was describing. I can't imagine seeing stars like this in the sky

You gotta get out between Abilene and Amarillo, dawg!

9/22/2025 6:52:53 PM

Oh wow. Cool link! Looks like that area you are talking about has better star viewing possibilities than anywhere in NC/SC

9/22/2025 7:33:03 PM

Yeah i used to live in a place that was a C3 on that map and it was great. You could see so much.

The x in the NE, or the x above the word falls would be the closest. I wonder if the western most x would be worth going to.

9/22/2025 9:55:11 PM

I might see some stars this fall break

Might try to go to this place soon. Its about 3 hours 20 minutes away but few folks on reddit made it sound like its the best state park to visit

9/22/2025 11:59:51 PM

haven't seen any in the last few nights

visibility has been somewhat limited though

also, if you've seen one star (or large object moving in the sky), you've seen 'em all

9/23/2025 11:24:24 AM

also in reference to the video on top of the page


Coz, you do realize you aren't a midwesterner, right?

I shoulda never tried to be a true Texas rattlesnake.

Check this place out if you're near Burnsville, NC. They're "Dark Sky Approved", and they have an observatory at the top of a mountain. The roof comes off and they have a couple of huge telescopes. It's neat. They also have a planetarium.
