We've had people come to our place just to look at the stars, because they live in an town or a city and they can't see the sky well there.

Absolutely. I was an amateur astronomer for quite some time. I love the night sky.

I wish I was in the middle of (our) Thar desert or somewhere far off in Himalayas. Night sky in its full glory is stupendous.

Yes. As a child it could get very dark on moonless nights but i never appreciated it. Since then I have lived in several and around several cities in the UK with lots of light pollution, only the brightest stars are visible there.

Now i live in a small village in rural France, they turn the street lights out at 10pm.

Its nice to relax on the veranda looking at the stars before bed

Oh yes. I used to stargaze back in my old house. Loved watching the constellation Orion from my bedroom window. The moment i used to find some unknown bright star in the night sky i used to turn on my laptop, open the app 'Stellarium' and it showed which stars are present in which portion of the sky. Then i used to run back to the rooftop to see if the stars in the sky are in the exact same areas as reported by the app. Here where i stay the skies remain mostly clear in summer. Even though i have a poor eyesight, i was able to see with the help of my glasses most of the bright stars like Vega, Sirius etc. The app even helped me find the constellation Draco and the star cluster Pleiades in the night sky. It was a real fun experience.

It's the best 5 senses thing we get to experience here to me, unless you count sexual euphoria, and then it's 2nd, but these 2 gap the 3rd thing a lot. Only the ineffable non physical side has anything to offer that's even better than these.

 

[icehorse]

yes !!

Where I live it is too urban, and too wet, and too cloudy. I was very excited for the eclipse since it went from rainy to clearing up during the day. But then at night when the eclipse was about to start It was *&$**@!! rainy again. Then towards the end of the eclipse it was miraculously clearing. But not to the !%$ #$#@$ %%@%@ east where the Moon is. Luckily there were no weathemen in my yard so none of them were harmed.

And when it's so dark the Milky Way is bright!

That's a heaven on Earth moment.

 

[Guitar's Cry]

Love them! I spend many clear nights on a blanket with my stargazing whisky and astronomy binoculars.

 

[VoidCat]

Kind of. I love how beautiful the sky is. But I dont feel safe walking alone at night

We don't get really dark nights anymore. Goodness, I remember being in the wilderness in northern Canada in the 1960s, where, there was no ambient light around, and the night sky was glorious. You could lose yourself in it.

Now, towns are everywhere, electric lights deprive us of the dark that used to be so perfect. I miss it terribly.

Stellarium is easy and nice.
