Bill,

I think Celestron came out with a scope using the Sky Scout just recently.

Hi Linton,

The skies look nice and blue, unlike here in Ohio. That is one of the things I miss most about the west.

Why is the sky dark at night?

Posted By john mclaughlin
I am not sure if this has been mentioned, but wouldn't the sky be bright if Earth was located closer to the center of the galaxy?
