On my bucket list is a visit to the European Southern Observatory in the Atacama Desert of northern Chile.They say there are parts of that desert that haven’t seen rain in 400 years.Given that it’s in the middle of nowhere I’ll bet the stars shine pretty brightly over the Atacama.
Yellowstone had more stars than I ever saw in my life!
I live on the California Nevada border not far from Tonopah. It is very dark here at night. Most visitors here are stunned by the millions of stars in our sky. It is even darker in the nearby 14,000 White Mountains where you can see the dim lights of Las Vegas 260 miles to the south.
