The feeling of being able to see a dark sky on a moonless night is amazing. For me, it's very spiritual, especially at a truly dark site, after my eyes adjust and I'm immersed in it. It's no wonder they call it "the heavens." It makes me sad that some people will never be able to experience it, and that I don't get to experience it more often. The feeling of cosmic insignificance and unknown is oddly comforting. Sometimes I wonder if lack of dark skies correlates with people being less religious. |

(I don't think I need to attribute this to this readership, but in case I do, it's by Emerson. And if you didn't know that, I strongly recommend googling Nightfall.)
