Opinions are my own.
Dr. John Barentine FRASSomething we suspected for a long time, but now there is some research backing it: "Our research also suggests that those people who live in more light-polluted areas are less connected to the night sky and feel less likely to protect it."

@tschfflr @skyglowberlin Congratulations Chris! 👏👏
Did you know if you use Google Streetview to look at the beaches at Midway atoll, you can see albatrosses and their nests everywhere? Amazing!! Thanks very much to Roberta Swift at USFW, who is posted there now, for showing me this. 🤯. https://maps.app.goo.gl/wBKqwWQtu2mKZ9hh6?g_st=ic
@raulclima I feel the same way. Moonlight is magical.
Thanks for reposting @raulclima I learned that this particular spectroradiometer has a floor of 1 lux +/- 10% so all the data are unreliable at this low light level. I have a new, very sensitive illuminance meter on the way, and an SQM-L, so better data will be posted.
Electrochromic windows on the 787 are very cool, both literally and figuratively, and effective. The only downside I can see, so far, is their slow rate of response.
