The night sky can be one of the most awe-inspiring views we will ever glimpse. Many people seek public lands to experience starry skies and dark nights. Let International Dark Sky Week inspire you to gaze into the vast universe this evening. Photo by @mypubliclands of Corona Arch in Utah.

Light pollution and a setting moon complement the Milky Way over Mount St. Helens, WA. Even 50 miles away, light pollution from Portland still fills the horizon. This area is a Bortle class 3 zone. The Bortle scale guages light pollution ranging from 1-9 (darkest to brightest). Dark sky sites are typically class 1 and 2, free from artificial light.

Pine Mountain Observatory is on the edge of one of the darkest areas in the U.S. This week is international dark sky week, celebrating dark sky sites like PMO. Not everyone has access to dark skies so I hope to bring them to your home with my photography. See more photos in the link in bio!
