It looks different than when you were a kid or you think the stars have lost their intensity, the problem is most likely urban sky glow or ”light pollution.”
Poor or ineffective outdoor lighting fixtures are the source of urban sky glow and the problem is no longer relegated to area in and around major cities. It is the cumulative result of over-lighting at malls, gas stations, parks and residential neighborhoods around the country.
Neighborhood friendly outdoor lighting fixtures prevent urban sky glow which come from glare, light trespass and wasted light that spills to the side and upward. This glow interferes with our ability to see the stars and galaxies; to enjoy the night as it once was.
