All right, then. I have to go there.

Most stars I ever saw was from the Joshua Tree monument on rte 10 outside Needles Ca. at 1am... Jinx and Iwere on our way back from Oakland to Tucson. Makes you feel small.

I can beat you all.

Look up some moonless night from more than 50 miles out at sea! Without the light pollution, the stars are AMAZING!

Right there with you Pam. The sky from the Baltimore canyon off the coast of DE/MD was, by far, the most amazing view of the stars I have ever seen.

"beat"... well... not a competition.

But I was on a cruise once through the South Pacific. Between Tahiti and Australia there were some lovely islands where we made port. There were also some "sea days" (and nights) where it was just our lonely tiny boat out in the middle of a LOT of water. On one of those nights at see, I went forward. There was one deck that ran around the ship including across the front of the ship. This is kind of unusual, most of the action is aft, or along the sides of the ship. On the back of the ship there are lots of lights, that's where the party is. But forward, they keep it dark so they can see the lights of any boat that might be ahead of them. It was a moonless night, and the sky was full of stars overhead. As I looked all around, I noticed that the density of the stars in the sky did not diminish as my my gaze moved downward from the zenith to the horizon. The sky at the horizon was just as dark as the sky overhead, and just as full of stars. I've never seen anything like it. Everywhere else I've been, the sky was lighter near the horizon, and consequently more washed out for stargazing. Not this night. It was awesome.

The desert night sky north of Tucson is like that, as long as you are not looking south towards the city. They work hard out here to control light pollution. It is amazing, so different from Indiana.

Well, yeah, some are here too. Like my Moms neighbor who has two house lights in the front and two in the back that they keep on ALL THE TIME. VERY aggravating.

I won't show it large, as it involves nipples (albeit male).
But I like the colours and it reminds the 'rents of their most recent holiday.
