looked up, didn't see anything moving

got fixated with how bright my ceiling light is from outside

seems like the night sky just gets less visible each year

I guess it's more visible in colder months though.. or is it?

I want to see like a truly clear sky, like they used to have it before electric light

ah well. I'll just post on TWW instead

Are you in a city? Light pollution makes the night sky look like shit. Go out in the middle of nowhere and you can see like a billion stars once you've been outside for a bit and your eyes have adjusted.

Sorry to triple post. Saw this on facebook, made me think it was kinda like what justin was describing. I can't imagine seeing stars like this in the sky

Oh wow. Cool link! Looks like that area you are talking about has better star viewing possibilities than anywhere in NC/SC

The x in the NE, or the x above the word falls would be the closest. I wonder if the western most x would be worth going to.
