Craig Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 The best way to get change is to get onboard with one of the light pollution campaigns. The biggest problem is that the general public do not understand why light pollution is a problem and dismiss it out of hand. It's never going to make the political agenda.

Celeste Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 I have major LP and it's smack bang on my east side, so I have to wait a while for objects to move to be able to see them, this image is 'as is'...and the biggest polluter? The UNI! They have HUGE floodlights everywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 It's like that around my way as well. Can't wait till I retire then I'm moving to Norfolk. A little cottage near the coast in a really small village, so I can do Astronomy, bird watching and photography, simply heaven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also has superb dark skies, wildlife and culture. Heaven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catman161 Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Yeah if money was no object I'd Go with Scotland also. Extremely dark, some amazing wildlife. I've always wanted to see a wild cat in Scotland, becoming quite rare now though. I saw a golden eagle in Scotland when I was younger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Scotland is fantastic in many ways but it's just so far away from family and friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brantuk Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 We're going up to Scotland in Nov - if I can wangle two days extra holiday - Ft William for the Commando Vets get together. Hopefully we'll see some starry skies (if it doesn't rain constantly). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
