Wow, these are fantastic photos, isn't?
Think again!
A view of the cities's world. The citizen of these cities can't see the Milky Way! Why?
There are the places with high level of light pollution.
The sky is wonderful and the people can see the magnificent Milky Way from places with low level of light pollution.
How dark is my sky?
We watched the sky and the magnitude was 4. We have saw thousand of stars and a hint of Milky Way.
We recorded our data on Great Wide Star Count site, event no. 1516.
This international event encourages everyone to go outside, look skywards after dark, count the stars they see in certain constellations, and report what they see online.
We observed the stars in Cygnus and we have seen all six stars in the cross of this constellation. The Magnitude was 4.
My students found a solution: Lights out! The sky is magnificent!
