Here are some good places to show the stars to friends-
1. Maldives
In the middle of the night, only the waves and the wind are soft around. The vast sea is dark, and the starry sky covers you like a dome. Looking around, even the sea is dotted, and the ocean and the sky can't be distinguished.
2. The top of Mount Kilimanjaro
Because the sky seen in the polar regions is basically rotating, and the perspective is the same all year round, theoretically only half of the stars in the sky can be seen. In fact, due to the attenuation of light by the atmosphere, less than half of it can be seen. In theory, stars can be seen near the equator, but in fact, most of them can be seen, because the earth is rotating, the air quality at the top of the mountain is good, and the field of vision is wide, so you can see more.
3. Langeland, Indonesia
? The nearest city to the equator
4. Sichuan Hongyuan-Zoige Prairie
Those stars are all kinds of colors, large and small, and they feel powerless when they look at the sky. The oppressive feeling of pouring down made me deeply realize that human beings are really too small in front of the starry sky.
5. Lake Tekapo, New Zealand
It's really spectacular, and you can see the big Scorpio.
Seeing so many beautiful starry sky, I can't help but quote Yang Liusong's article in "The Open Space in the North".
I divide the starry sky into three categories. One is the dim starry sky, which can be seen in most parts of the world. The second is the bright starry sky, and you can only see the distant wilderness. The third is the starry sky with water waves. The stars are dotted with patches of light, such as water waves, which can be seen at the top of a very high mountain. Qiangtang in the high area is really unusual. ?
I hope you can enjoy such a beautiful starry sky with me under the same sky.
