Actual Astronomy - Light Pollution Edition

<p class="p1">Hosted by Chris Beckett & Shane Ludtke, two amateur astronomers in Saskatchewan.</p> <p class="p1">Welcome to episode 135 of the Actual Astronomy Podcast, the light pollution edition, or maybe the “get rid of light pollution” additional. This episode places a focus on the troubling trend of increasing light pollution and its impact on astronomy and the general population.</p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">The light near Chris's house that has been changed from the old fashioned spilling-every light-which-way Cobra head to a new almost full-cut-off. He says “almost” because they're not quite doing the trick is I would hope they would do, and they will need some adjustment for him to get used to.</p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.</p> <p class="p1">Just visit: <a href= "https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy">https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy</a> and donate as much as you can!</p> <p class="p1">Share the podcast with your friends and send the Patreon link to them too!</p> <p class="p1">Every bit helps!
