REFLECTING THE STARS

According to the U.S. Parks Association, only 10% of the United States will be able to see the night sky by 2020. How sad is that? One of my favourite things about going to Mayne Island in the summer when I was younger was just being able to see the stars and the Milky Way at night and marveling at the sheer size of the universe. This incredible installation on Pier 49 in NY is an attempt to shed some light on the issue of light pollution (haha see what I did there? Yeah, I'm clever. I know)
