The Rise of a Star

Do you live in a place where you can easily see stars in a clear night sky?

Yes, but i prefer, mostly, the moon. My bad eyes could be a reason for this ;-D

Do you live in a place where you can easily see stars in a clear night sky?

yes, but i don't look as much as i should

not that clear here in the city skies

Depends on the season. If those greenhouses in the area turn on their lights at night, the sky turns pink/purple

Paris so...not really no.

I wish, light pollution is too strong here

Yes. Here power outages are something very often and common. When that happens, we can see the whole sky, sometimes full of stars. It's really amazing

With the temperature here, I feel like I'm living in a star... 💪😩

I can only see the moon

Used to. As a kid did it a lot during nights.

Though in hindsight that might have been due to the frequent power cuts at that time...

There is a ranch I visited when I was a kid. There's a basketball court in the middle of the whole place, you could see the stars really good from there, even comets or satellites sometimes.
Guess I have to thank you for bringing back that memory.
Nice clickbait btw.

I don't recognize your a pattern or cypher. Hint?

Can see "some" stars at night here (often cloudy skies, and when clear, city lights make it hard).

Yeah i can see the stars, but not as good/as many as in other places

I do enjoy the stars when I am in a rural area. But as I live in a city, I typically can't see them very well. :(

I can see the main ones, but the light polution doesn't help to see more details.

The sky will be hazy this season when the basin is covered with moisture and several rivers intersect.
⛅☔😊☔🐸🐟

The night sky is beautiful on cloudless days in midwinter when it is -20 degrees below zero or higher.
However, rather than waiting for such a day, it is better to travel from this rural area to a hot spring resort deep in the mountains, where the scenery is better throughout the four seasons.❄( ｢'Θ')🔭　✨❄

Sadly no, too much air pollution. A few years ago a friend and her boyfriend got far away from the major cities on a trip and took some astonishingly beautiful photos (especially for two amateur photographers) of the starry sky and I still remember it today.

On one hand, no, middle of the city, too much light from the streets.

On the other hand -- we actually have the luxury of having a skylight in our house. That means we can see the moon from the living room on clear nights. :D

Cheers!

same, love to look at stars. and always wanted to buy a telescope (fairly good place, here)

i'm not sure i'd stay for more than few (dozen of) minutes, tho... i think mine it's more a "philosophical look" than a "scientific" one.

thanks fo' gib, Maya, appreciated!

level 3 PSA, so you people don't waste time.

Getting glasses would help me see the stars heh

I'm surprised Oppenh4imer has not come yet to give some astonomical facts.

I'll steal his line with a Webb picture

View attached image.

bump,
Yeah, depends, but it's visible most of the time.

I can see the stars a bit, but I would have to drive a bit to get away from street lights. We tried seeing the northern lights when they had a movement across the states, but were unable to see it where we live. :(

Bump!
