Description
A contribution by Mary Stewart Adams
Mary Stewart Adams interweaves light pollution, mythology, literature and upcoming celestial events to show why protecting natural darkness is so important. She explores how dark-sky parks, meteor showers, eclipses and ancient stories – from Plato via Ptolemy to the Gospels – can deepen our relationship with the night, and invites you to prepare for the impressive eclipses of 2026 and 2027.
A contribution by Mary Stewart Adams for Dark Sky Week 2026.
