In the span of a single lifetime, light pollution stemming from Artificial Light At Night (ALAN) has severed the connection with the stars that we’ve had since the dawn of time. With the nocturnal biosphere significantly altered, light’s anthropogenic influence has compelled millions of people to seek out the last remaining dark skies.
Marlin’s new book, “Astrotourism: Star Gazers, Eclipse Chasers, and the Dark Sky Movement,” explores the growth of the astrotourism industry, identifies star seeker trends, and recounts how the stars have shaped civilizations. Utah is a destination for astrotourism and is heavily involved in the dark sky movement. Monday on Access Utah we’ll talk about meteor storms, eclipses, auroras, and other celestial phenomena, along with the 2024 Great North American Eclipse.
