Discover: Incredible all-sky picture.
Cool. This is what the guys up at Chaco Culture NHP were doing when I created a night sky website for them. Got to sit on top of a cold steel water tower while they ran their CCD camera around the sky, measuring light leakage from various ‘perps’ around the perimeter (all-night stop and shops, mining concerns, interstates). Why do they do it? Because the Chacoan people considered the night sky essential to their lifestyle, timing of their rituals. So the Park Service sees a dark sky as a ‘resource’, just like any other resource they manage.
