Parks and Astronomy

“Parks and Astronomy” illuminates the captivating connection between America's national parks and the wonders of the night sky. It serves as both a travel guide and a scientific exploration, revealing prime stargazing locations within park boundaries and emphasizing the crucial need for dark sky conservation. Readers will discover how light pollution not only obscures our view of celestial events but also disrupts nocturnal ecosystems. The book uniquely blends astronomical science with practical advice, offering insights into celestial phenomena like constellations and nebulae, and highlighting the efforts of park rangers to preserve these natural resources.

The book progresses methodically, beginning with foundational astronomical concepts and the dangers of light pollution. It then guides readers through specific national parks renowned for their dark skies, detailing optimal viewing spots and seasonal events. Finally, “Parks and Astronomy” empowers readers to become advocates for dark sky conservation in their own communities, providing actionable steps to reduce light pollution. This approach allows readers to not only appreciate the beauty of the cosmos but also to actively participate in its preservation.
