I thought living in Dublin was bad, what must it be like living in Manchester or Birmingham? An astronomer would have to drive to Scotland or Wales for some decent dark skies.

Saying that, Ireland is becoming a mess.

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better programs, and the universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the universe is winning.

This is absolutely amazing! I downloaded this photo:-

ftp://eol.jsc.nasa.gov/ESC_large_ISS016_ISS016-E-27037.JPG

On it I can see separately the orange sodium lights of Larne town and just to the right the high intensity white security lights of Larne Harbour which are my worst source of light pollution.

Perhaps I should send them the picture and point out that they can be seen from space! Do you think they'd turn them down a bit??
