 Took the family camping with some friends this weekend and the night skies were incredible. I took this photo just holding my phone with a 10 second exposure. Surprised it came out this well, but there were probably 10 times more stars visible to the eye. Amazing. Was nice being away from the city lights.

 Nice! Also nice to see personal posts to catch a glimpse of the man behind the curtain 👊 
 🤣🫡 
 Light pollution in the cities hides like 99.9 percent of the stars. Nothing we can do about it as we need those lights. 
 We don't actually need those lights  
 Read the Three Body Problem then have a cocktail and go look at the night sky
