As a two time Alaskan fisherman I can attest there is a place you can see the night sky in all its glory. 5 miles off the Aleutian islands, there is NO light pollution. You can't see your hand in front of your face. The nights where the water was calm and reflected the night sky are the nights I will always treasure. Spent some time growing up in Nye County, Nevada, too. Amargosa Valley is a GREAT place to see the Milky Way.

A thousand thanks for this, gentlemen. I am now 75 years old, I grew up in Argentina on farms in distant places. I clearly remember night skies in "El Arenal" 25°55'11.6" S 65°07'15.8"W, in 1953 (only 5, then) and later at my paternal grandfather's farm/ranch, 35°34'12.4"S 61°01'00.9"W through the 50s and 60s and later in Northern Patagonia around 41°06'32.6"S 71°26'14.1"W. Today some of these spots have turned into towns, back then they were far from any and everything and there were few places with public illumination. At my grandfather's we didn't have electricity. Now I live in CO and have been across the deserts and semi-deserts of the SW where many a clear night has delighted my family and me. We have camped on top of mountains in the Rockies to enjoy meteor showers among other celestial joys.

We had a brief power outage here recently, and its was stunning. I went out for a walk in the dark, and was immediately greeted by none other than Orion in all his glory. Caught myself an *_amazing_* time lapse photo of the constellation. When the street lights turned on shortly thereafter, Orion retreated to his bunker, like candlelight being snuffed out.

After Hurricane Ike came ashore in September of 2008, the Houston metro area was without power. A cool front blew through bringing in dry air. Our neighborhood had a block party where we emptied our refrigerators cooking everything we could on gas ranges , BBQ grills and camp stoves. As it got dark, we set up tables in the cul-de-sac at the end of the street to have a feast. After stuffing ourselves we leaned back in our lawn chairs and looked up. Wow, so many stars and the Milky Way. The first and last time that I have ever experienced that in Houston.

I love the part that explains the sky view of the Nevada desert. For one, I have lived in the Las Vegas area for over 40 years. I have seen the city grow immensely. There was one really bad thing that was done that upset Astronomy enthusiasts back in the 1990s, and that was the extremely bright light on top of the Luxor Hotel. Airline pilots hated it, and astronomers hated it. You would have to travel far out of the city to completely escape that light. I once took a night trip to Area 5, not on the air base of course, but to the sole Little Little A’Le’Inn dining area and gift shop. The sky was great for gazing, but even after that 100-mile or so trip, we could still see the Luxor light. Thankfully, years later, during the recession, the light was dimmed somewhat, not only because of the complaints but because of the 1 million dollars a year light bill. That bill would probably have been 2 million today. Also, the best place I had ever visited at night to view the night sky was Death Valley. Wow! It was an exceptional view of the Milky Way. Lastly, when thinking of going far to the north of town, especially in the winter, unless you are a polar bear type person, it is MUCH cooler than the Las Vegas Valley. The temperature gets down below 0 F in some places. Average winter nights 100-200 miles north of the city are usually in the teens in the winter. [EDIT] BTW , I typed this comment about a third of the way into the video before Death Valley was mentioned. I am glad it was brought up in the video.

What I had thought a misfortune to draw the flightdeck midwatch, 12:00 midnight to 4:AM, turned out to be the best view of the night sky possible. During 'Darken Ship' where no exterior light is permitted, the only indication of a horizon was where the stars stopped. I watched the stars blink off in the West and blink on in the East. I walked in space that night, and had a sore neck the next day!

Before watching this episode I have to tell you the answer you pose is elementary - to me. I experienced pitch blackness all around me from the time I was 5 years old in the Sonoran desert outside Yuma, Arizona. There are lots of locations in Southwest Arizona with absolutely no light pollution. And the silence out there is just as breathtaking as the bright starlight - with and without moonlight. While growing up I spent hundreds of hours out there contemplating why I am aware and where I came from...and just tripping on the calmness around me and the infinity above. Nothing in that desert environment was ever daunting or dangerous, and to this day - some 70 years later - it was the safest and most beautiful place I have been to.

As a child my family's vacation home was on a lake 30 or 40 miles from Montgomery AL. That was back in the early 70s so as small as a capital city as Montgomery was, there was just nothing around at all. I remember clearly seeing the Milky Way and it fading away as the years passed and development encroached more and more. By the time my son was the age I was then, it was just like a normal sky with Orion and the like. When he was 15 we drove to the Grand Canyon and arrived about 11PM. Coming through the high desert going to the South rim we stopped and got out of the car. He'd never seen anything like that night sky. Just a random night but more shooting stars than any night we had sat up to view the Perseids or other annual showers. One of my cherished memories now that he's gone. Just to share that with him.

It seems harsh to wish car trouble on everyone. In the 70s I had a 1968 Mustang and the battery seemed to go bad. A local mechanic said the alternator had reversed polarity and was running the battery down, which he said should only be possible with a generator, and not an alternator. In the years I owned the car the alternator had to be replaced three times. We never did figure out the cause. I had no cool stargazing stories. When it would begin having trouble starting I would park at the top of slopes so I could roll it to start (standard transmission.) And once some guys had to push it to start. Fun times!

Yayyyy 🥰!!! Yes dead centre of town 🪦🪦 ... pfft obviously my dead bump stickler is older than yours, chuck. 18:13 aww that slow beaming smile is answer enough for a wonderful question. And second guest from Iran ✨ (shushing heart 🤭). Wait up. Third guest and he has a night sky basin?! 😭 oh my gawd I just love it! 54:00 I threw my badge in the fire 😏but Neil knows its actually the 911 bat signal after being ankle stung while looking up too long. Right? How do you stay protected from wild life in the dark desert anyways🤔... I know: just stay tied to the hip of the ranger. Cool. Thank you StarTalk 💛

The only thing I saw in the sky growing up was the moon, barely anything else. That's how I thought it was until I saw actual pictures of the real night sky, which blew my mind and to be honest that was fairly recently like within the last ~10 or so years.
