Daniele T.For the past few evenings I've noticed a ridiculous amount of fireflies in my neighbour's garden and mine. I can't express how happy that's making me 😀
I haven't seen so many since I was a kid, camping on the hills and mountains.
AWESOME!!!!
Gegenschein@empathroet @tagesschau Oh, ich hatte für einen kurzen Moment gelesen „Strenge Regeln für künstliches Licht“. Ist immerhin eine schädliche Umwelteinwirkung. #nolightpollution
BriceRed Alert,
Une photo comme ça avant de reprendre des publications plus urbaines.

If you find a Star in the sky and don’t know its name, step on one of the fields and take aim at it by utilizing one of three rings on the pole. Enter then on an app the field name and which ring you’re using and the app will show you the name of the star
This installation is on the mountain Hohe Geba in Thuringia, Germany in the international dark sky reserve Rhön - a place with a magnificent view on the stars

Take that, cities of the world.
It is as easy as pushing a button to switch off unnecessary illumination of monuments at nighttime to save energy, prevent skyglow and do not kill insects.

What is light pollution?
A lot of the outdoor lighting used at night is inefficient, overly bright, poorly targeted, improperly shielded, and in many cases, completely unnecessary. This light and the electricity used to create it are being wasted because it spills into the sky rather than being focused on the objects and areas that people need illuminated.
Effects are sleep deprivation, massive insect and migratory bird loss, health issues, etc.

International Dark Sky Week is a worldwide celebration of the dark and natural night. For many, the dark night is often misunderstood, unfamiliar, and frightening. But the natural night is filled with wonder and awe, and is critical to the health and wellbeing of our planet. We invite you to join us as we discover the night together and learn about the harmful effects of light pollution and what we can do to embrace the dark and save the night.
I'm participating in a citizen-science project to count all light sources in an area.
Satellite imagery only tells that #lightpollution increases whereas no reliable ground data was available until now.
Anyone can submit data, too, by using the browser-based application. There's a quick tutorial available, too.

Nappé 🌄A while ago, I went on an adventure, where I took this photo of the nearby town. The time is around 3AM.
