When I was very young , I would lay on the ground day or night and stare into the sky so long that eventuly I tricked myself into thinking I would fall into the sky. :wink:

That looks like a pretty cool site too

One of the places we lived while I was in school was N. Dakota. The one thing it had to recommend it was the sparseness of human habitation and resulting light pollution. We had a wood deck out back and I would go out back at night and listen to the "Hearts of Space" show on NPR and you could see so many stars. These days I live far enough out of Milwaukee to be able to see lots of stars at night, but even out here there's enough light pollution to mask more than 3/4 of the stars I could see from the porch back then! It's kind of sad to think that most people grow up, live and die without ever having REALLY seen the night sky.
