I genuinely pity anyone that's never been to sea at night. I think 99% of the world's population would be absolutely shocked at how many stars there really are.

Thanks for the Memory. I do remember now. seeing each others outline in the Stars. You get far enough out to sea there is nothing but you and the Milkyway at Night.

Pretty much, unless you're in a western state or upstate Northeast.
One of the few reasons I liked Iraq, especially in 2003.

I'll bet an Excellent View. Probably the farthest out I've been from light is the NE Side of the Island Diego Garica.
