This made me very sad. I’m very privileged, I live in a dark sky community very near a big telescope and on the border of a huge desert. My dad’s really into astronomy, looking at the night sky has been a big part of my life. I lived for a bit in the city, and the sky was one of the things I missed the most.

It’s like the ocean, I suppose. Another thing that it seems impossible to me that people could go their whole lives and never see, but maybe most do.
