The space mirror is only going to enhance the night sky by better lighting up everything else. And since it’s a mirror, you get double the star goodness for whatever you want to see!
You mean zero stars because many nights the moon alone provides enough reflection to blind the sky essentially.
I was an adult before i learned that in actual darkness we can see the andromeda system and the beautiful colors of our own galaxy at large with our naked eye.
I used to think pictures like these required super expansive special camaras… and to be fair i was correct in that assessment. But i failed to realize the ultimate light sensor is simply our own eyes.
The sky is beautiful, its sad how hard it is to catch a real glimpse of it in proper light contrast
I grew up in an area that was fairly dark. Probably somewhere between Bortle class 3 and 4 when I was young.
When I went backpacking in the Rockies, it was like nothing I had ever seen before. The night sky is vast and beautiful, and so full of lights and color. Constellations are hard to make out because there are so many dots to look at, rather than the light being too faint to make out.
Amateur astronomers be like. Cant you just sell me a cloudless night sky instead?
