Dr. John Barentine FRASSamuel Challéat (Nocturnal Environment Observatory) noted the historic disconnection between urban lighting studies and light pollution research. Calls for the recognition of "Nocturnal Environmental Studies" that takes a socio-ecological systems approach. #IAUGS2024 #Astronomy2024
I'm really impressed by the resourcefulness of educators and outreach professionals in developing nations, especially in the Global South. Just blown away by the initiatives presented in this session, which are successful because of the time & energy invested by many volunteers. #IAUGS2024 #Astronomy2024
