You still have to wait until Tuesday for the audio, but at least you can get a teaser for what Mike Weasner and I talked about on The #StarRiver #Podcast! If you are at all into #astrophotography #darkskies or #SpaceShuttle you need to listen! @darkskyintl.bsky.social Dark Sky Week April 13!!! 🎙🔭🦛
The Isle of Wight is one of the few places in the UK where the Milky Way can still be seen with the naked eye. Read more in my blog about dark sky gazing in Ventnor. www.ventnorselfcatering.co.uk/under-the-st...

David and Cory sharing solar views and the potential for Lansing, NC to become the first International DarkSky Community in Appalachia. Thanks to the Farmer's Market for allowing us to attend. We look forward to many more events in the park in the near future. #LansingNC #AsheCountyNC #DarkSkies
The starry sky shines over a railway track and a monument on the moors. Text reads: protecting our dark skies.
🌌 85% of people can’t see the Milky Way from where they live anymore 😔
Dark skies matter for wildlife & nature.
Good to see places like the @northyorkmoors.org.uk leading the way to protect them ✨

Tonight is Earth Hour.
From 8:30 PM to 9:30 PM, millions of people across the globe will be doing something truly radical: sitting in the dark and actually talking to the people they live with.

Soon we may see 1 million more satellites in Earth's orbit. The consequences to astronomy would be devastating.

Think I saw that this weekend on Countryfile my friend. #DarkSkies areas and our night sky are both things that should not be polluted by light and the irrelevant & irrelevant misuse of them. Keep our night skies beautiful for all to see ⭐🌜
A vast, open landscape stretches across the frame, dominated by a massive, violently rotating tornado descending from a dense, layered storm system. The sky is nearly black at the top, transitioning into deep teal and gray tones as thick, rolling clouds spiral downward into a towering funnel. The tornado itself is wide and muscular, its base churning with dirt and debris that scatter outward across a flat, barren field. In the foreground, a narrow gravel or dirt path cuts diagonally through pale, wind-pressed grass, leading the eye toward the storm. A small, solitary figure stands near the path, dwarfed by the scale of the approaching vortex, their posture rigid as they face the oncoming force. Off to the right, a single leafless tree stands isolated against the horizon, bent slightly as if bracing against the wind. The lighting is dim and diffused, with a faint, sickly glow near the horizon line that contrasts against the heavy darkness above. The entire scene conveys overwhelming scale, tension, and the raw, indifferent power of nature. Keywords: tornado, supercell storm, dark clouds, rural landscape, lone figure, extreme weather, funnel cloud, open field, atmospheric tension, cinematic scale AI-generated; use is permitted for non-commercial creative projects.

Most outdoor lighting is brighter than needed.
Blue light scatters, disrupts sleep, and harms wildlife.
Amber reduces glare—and protects the stars.
Ask yourself: how often do those lights need to be on?

Back in Feb I had the pleasure of taking a group out whilst being filmed by the BBC. Tonight's episode of Countryfile featured myself for the first 15mins or so and I was behind the scenes for the telescope bits too. Hopefully it gets people to embrace the darkness of the night sky!

The aurora at Embleton Quarry Nature Reserve this morning. Lying on the pond dipping platform looking up at the stars is the most relaxing thing I've done in a long time ! Such a peaceful place, with lovely dark skies. ✨

Millions of birds fly through Texas each year, guided by the stars. Now, artificial light is causing confusion, collisions, and food scarcity.

In a world with more and more light polluting our night sky, dark skies are worth protecting 🌌 Ely’s Dark Skies Festival, March 19–22, celebrates the magic of northern night skies with stargazing, storytelling, and winter adventure ✨❄️🔭

I’m sat here reminiscing about two 90s tv shows which I thought was amazing but criminally only received one season…

Which of you amazing bunch watched these and loved them like I did?
Dark skies fuel tourism across rural Texas.
Astrotourism brings visitors, hotel stays, and local spending. Excessive lighting puts that growing economy at risk.
Protecting dark skies means protecting local opportunity.
#DarkSkyTexas #Astrotourism #TexasEconomy #DarkSkies
Breathtaking views of the night sky.
An almost forgotten spectacle, for most.
