Really, Really Dark

Natural Bridges National Monument

In our world at times light is not a good thing. It doesn’t allow enjoying the universe at night when the stars twinkle in the sky, the planets are visible (I love Saturn and its bright rings!) and the galactic Milky Way enhance our imagination.

Well, there is a place where you can sit under a massive natural bridge and stare at the stars with such a bright light to cast a shadow! I never imagined before visiting Natural Bridges National Monument how beautiful a night sky can be. Here I really understood the meaning of “in the middle of nowhere”!

This particular spot in Southern Utah is the world’s first certified International Dark Sky Park. The darkest and the starriest.
