The dark sky blues: Light pollution is robbing us of the stars
Scientists have a new term for expressing the feeling of loss that comes from losing the pristine dark skies that allow for good stargazing. They call it "noctalgia," or "sky grief."
As light pollution continues to increase, more and more people are experiencing this sense of loss. The beauty of a starry night sky is being obscured by artificial light, leaving us with a dimmer, less inspiring view of the cosmos. It's important to raise awareness about the impact of light pollution and work towards preserving our dark skies for future generations to enjoy.
