Dark Sky Sites

Recommended Posts

Isee Dark Skies has been running a little while now and has quite a few entries in its database, I thought it might be interesting to see how all of your additions compared to the light pollution map I found here: http://www.spacegazer.com/light-pollution-g.asp.

It looks pretty good! The dark sites from the submissions marry up pretty well with the areas of least light pollution and the worst areas hit smack bang near cities and towns with really bad light pollution.

I know this is like saying a goose is a goose but I thought it interesting to setup this comparison.

For any of you who haven't yet added your favourite spots to the site, please do, it will help everyone! If your worried about sharing your gardens location then you could always click somewhere a short distance from your house, just to give us an idea of the locations usefulness.

Cheers,

Grant

This type of thing works best when people join in. So come on, rate your skies. The bigger the database the better, you might reap the rewards when you are looking for dark skies one day!!! :)
