The sky is nice and clear tonight. I took a reading of the night sky at home and got a pretty typical result (~21mpsas). To you folks in the cities and suburbs, this would be considered "dark".
Compare that to the reading to the one I took at my other property a few days ago (21.65mpsas), there's a huge difference. That's a very dark sky! Theoretical darkest sky on earth is usually assumed to be 22mpsas. The scale is logarithmic.
When you experience a really dark sky, the one back at home just doesn't look the same anymore.
