Our Brilliant Relationship With the Night and Galaxies

Sharing is caring!

The night sky with stars.

When we stare at the sky under the cover of darkness at night, we see virtually the same sky people have observed for thousands of years. The same night sky has inspired many mythologies, works of art, literature, and musical compositions from worldwide cultures. It is an infinite and limitless resource.

Before the widespread usage of electric lights, people had a far more robust connection to the night sky’s rhythms and marvels. The sky indicated the passage of time and the change of seasons. It symbolized order but was subject to change. The night sky has influenced the beliefs and customs of cultures throughout history, from the tales of ancient Greece to the celestially aligned structures of ancestral Puebloan cultures to agrarian harvest celebrations and maritime navigation records of sea journeys to faraway regions.

We continue to take inspiration from space and the night skies.

In many national parks, natural darkness is integral to the park’s heritage. In the same way, we conserve historic structures and landscapes as they appeared during a particular era; we also acknowledge the historical worth of the natural lightscape
