Maybe you can spot a few stars and the Moon. However, if you can get away from the glare of city lights, a whole galaxy is on display. The International Dark-Sky Association (IDA) works to protect nighttime environments from light pollution. The association encourages people to think about the types of lights they use and provides advice on how to keep the sky dark at night. The IDA has named several places around the world as dark sky areas.
