Got any rocks? Yeah,.. enough said. I have issues with the baseball floodlights near the arena. They are usually only used during the summer when I am away camping but this year, some major repairs were done to the arena which needed extra security. Those stupid lights flooded my sky all winter!

Planets were not hard to locate but most deep-sky objects were washed out! :(

hi there have you spoke with your security light owner ?,that should be your first job ,invite the people round wait for the moon to be half ,get a good ep in and show them,next find a galaxy and get them to put the said light on .

the other route is the council make a complaint light to you local council tell them you do not ,want your name mentioned in the letter they send. light pollution is treated the same as any other ie spilt oil ect ring them once a week ,keep om at the council till they do some thing about it and they should if not write to the mp for councils and tell him you are getting no joy with your local council

cheers pat

I'd love to build a large observatory in my backyard - it would have the biggest most powerful spot lights allowed by law! As soon as the first neighbour decides to come out (becuse they heard a noise) and turn on their back porch light - I turn on my 500 Mw spot lamps! "What - is this too bright?" Oh - sorry, maybe we should both turn off our lights? Plan B - use 5000 MW spot lamps so they can't even see what they are looking at. "What - You'd rather I didn't shine these lights in your yard? - Oh, very well then - I'll turn them off" No explanation in light abatement required!
