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.

9/21/2025 11:08:47 PM

^i still want to try that sometime

This is what i picture qntmfred seeing. More videos in the comments

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

You gotta get out between Abilene and Amarillo, dawg!

9/22/2025 6:52:53 PM

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

9/22/2025 7:33:03 PM

Yeah i used to live in a place that was a C3 on that map and it was great. You could see so much.

9/22/2025 7:58:31 PM

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.

9/22/2025 9:55:11 PM

I might see some stars this fall break

Might try to go to this place soon. Its about 3 hours 20 minutes away but few folks on reddit made it sound like its the best state park to visit

9/22/2025 11:59:51 PM

haven't seen any in the last few nights

visibility has been somewhat limited though

also, if you've seen one star (or large object moving in the sky), you've seen 'em all

9/23/2025 11:24:24 AM

also in reference to the video on top of the page


Coz, you do realize you aren't a midwesterner, right?

9/23/2025 11:29:07 AM

I shoulda never tried to be a true Texas rattlesnake.

Check this place out if you're near Burnsville, NC. They're "Dark Sky Approved", and they have an observatory at the top of a mountain. The roof comes off and they have a couple of huge telescopes. It's neat. They also have a planetarium.

10/4/2025 11:12:35 AM

super moon

10/6/2025 8:25:07 PM

Harvest moon they are calling it

does anyone else have trouble listening to Neil Young due to the feeble old man voice that he developed (presumably) in his 20s?

kinda like rockin' in the free world tho lol but otherwise he has no business singing

10/7/2025 6:07:05 AM

damn I want to see some high visibility before I die

it's kind of sad that I have to say that, since 100 years ago it would have basically been like that everywhere

10/7/2025 6:11:48 AM

^^No.

10/7/2025 8:37:08 AM

for me it's



[Edited on October 7, 2025 at 9:13 AM. Reason : see y'all out there tonight]

10/7/2025 9:11:46 AM

Well, yeah, that's the objectively better song, but I was playing off harvest moon.

10/7/2025 2:48:38 PM

10/7/2025 2:55:23 PM

10/7/2025 4:26:28 PM

Better than smoking cigarettes for 20 years

10/7/2025 5:36:26 PM

10/7/2025 7:17:15 PM

10/7/2025 10:18:31 PM

Gazing? More like gay zing amirite?

10/7/2025 11:03:41 PM

Thinking about this, wonder how the turnout is. Also thinking of maybe like 22nd, cause no moon that night. Both depend on weather obviously, as its like 3.5hr away. Might bring my mountain bike and make a day of it

10/10/2025 10:03:40 PM

I think the first time I've seen 4 in the same field of view at the same time

[Edited on October 13, 2025 at 7:42 PM. Reason : not in the same constellation ]

[Edited on October 13, 2025 at 7:43 PM. Reason : not even 8:00 yet and already seen ~10]
