Ich habe noch nie Sterne am Himmel gesehen, außer der Sonne selbst und wie drei besonders helle andere. Ich hoffe wirklich, dass sich dies in meinem Leben ändern kann …

I used to see it from my backyard (early nineties). At some point I thought I imagined it. Until I went to Ukraine in 2000.
Very very sad about it and for a while looking to plan a vacation to see it. Also already highlighted in my agenda if i am still alive, July 28, 2061 passage of comet Halley. To make sure on some high mounain peak above the clouds
unfortunately with everything going LED. Light has become so cheap, Belgium keeps suburb streets lights on passed 2am.
It used to be so much more visible after 2am when the lights went out.
Never thought someone can’t see stars😏
I know it’s unrealistic but I would be all for a night a year where they turn off street lighting and such for a couple of hours.
Having been in the outback in Australia, we see nothing here. The view on a clear night is something everyone should experience.
When i went to Lombok, with barely any modern human activities, it was like
Never seen stars in the sky? Have you never left Brussels centre?
I’ve seen the northern lights 1km from my house, from an industrial zone on the outskirts of our town. I can see loads of stars from my backyard which is in a town of 35.000 people…
I was lucky enough to live on an uninhabited island for 11 days in 2018 to see the milky way, or the northern lights in Lapland last year, as well as the milky way once more from a mountain in Switzerland this summer, but seeing many stars is definitely possible in Belgium…
I used to be able to see it when I lived with my parents in Noord-Limburg on some nights if I tried really hard. Probably not anymore though 🙁
The shock I had looking up at night visiting Iceland
I see it every time in the Carrefour tho. Tastes good but bad for the caloriekes.
Going on vacation to Southern France halfway atop a mountain during summertime and sleeping outside with my nephew during Perseids (I think it was called, a period of with a higher chance of meteor showers) is a core memory of mine.
The vastness, all those streaks appearing one after another as you can see an ocean of stars is genuinenly awe inspiring, it makes you feel insignificant but in a good way, a sort of mystical transcendence almost.
It’s profoundly sad we don’t have that view anymore, even more so because it’s not even necessary, all that light we shine into the sky is wasted energy, properly oriented lights, hoods, and timers could resolve most of the issue easily.
