This is the true beauty of the fantasy night sky

Stop for a moment to enjoy the beautiful, priceless images of nature you will surely not regret.

Photographer Sriram Murali has released a time-lapse video called " Lost in Light " that expresses the true beauty of the starry sky every night. What we can hardly admire due to the phenomenon of " light pollution " with agents are artificial factors such as street lights, dust and smoke .

Lost in Light

60% of people in Europe and 80% in North America live in areas that do not have the opportunity to admire the beautiful Milky Way. And it's not just big cities that are involved, even the suburbs are suffering the same risk.

The level statistics are based on the Bortle scale - the officially recognized norm for the brightness and clarity of the night sky as well as the stars. The lightest level 1 proves to be an ideal sky, while ladder 9 is often measured in places like the city center.

This is not just about losing one of the rare landscapes and visions, but also showing that the new type of pollution " light pollution " is gradually negatively affecting people. This phenomenon is adversely affecting plants and trees, leading to cases of early blooming flowers that affect the inherent law of the natural food chain.

There are already organizations in the world who are working hard to counter the negative effects of light pollution and repel similar agents that are at risk of outbreaks, besides preserving for other areas. not as seriously affected as big cities. The World-wide Sky Conservation Association is one of them.

Let us all join together to help solve this problem with a small action of " turning off the light when not in use ".
