LiteLynx List -- Light Pollution Awareness Links
The Bane of astronomers (amateur and Professional). Light Pollution is a seriousproblem for most amateur astronomers today (see the pictures just above).
http://www.rocketroberts.com/astro/litepol.htm

Extractions: Updated 16 Nov 2002 The view almost all of us had from home only 25 - 50 years ago... and what the vast majority of Americans now see from their backyard. These photos show approximately the same area of the sky; one was taken from a dark sky site and one was taken from outside a small city (Springfield, MA). Light Pollution is a serious problem for most amateur astronomers today (see the pictures just above). The picture on the left was taken at a dark sky location (Colebrook, CT USA); the photo on the right was taken from Wilbraham MA USA looking towards Springfield, MA (A city of about 250,000 people). The light pollution in the Springfield MA area is very bad (and Springfield is considered a small city by most people). Unless you live way worse visibility because of the excessive glare they produce. Everyone can benefit from improved lighting; lower tax bills, less air pollution, improved visibility and more. It is in the best interest of everyone to reduce light pollution! A comprehensive listing of Light Pollution articles can be found at the bottom of this page . Thanks to Cliff Haas for providing this detailed list!

http://my.voyager.net/stargazer/personal.html

Extractions: Personal Pages of Astronomers It may be hard to believe, but I am not the only person in the world who likes astronomy. There are thousands of us out there! Each is unique. Everyone has different interests. Some like to take pictures with an "old fashioned" SLR camera and some like using advanced Charged Coupled Devices (CCD). There are even a very few of us that are fortunate enough to get paid for studying the universe. Some of us just like to look up to the night sky and wonder what makes it all go. I hope you take the time and explore some of these sites on the internet and realize how important astronomy is to us. If you would like to have your home page added here e-mail me at stargazer@voyager.net and I will add it. Be sure to put "Personal Page" in the subject heading. If you would like to add a link to my home page from yours then you certainly may do so (Just let me know - I get a kick out of seeing links to my page !). If you have trouble with any of the links on this page or discover that a URL has changed then please notify me and I will correct it. Also, if you find a home page that is not appropriate (i.e. UFO nut cases) then please notify me and I'll remove it. I've only had the chance to check out a handful of these sites myself. Thanks for stopping by!
