    Only half of the world should ideally be populated. That way we can enjoy areas with no light pollution.

    I want to see the Milky Way one day before I die. It's on the bucket-list.

    • do you live in the middle of LA, or Mexico City or something?moldero
    • well way less than a quarter of the world has people living there. just gotta go further away from the city.pango
    • You don't have to go that far to see it. Shit. I see it dozens of times every year.monospaced
    • And mono lives in New York. Shouldn't be too hard for everyone else.pango
    • go anywhere with few lights out of city and you will see the Milky Way. But to see it vividly I recommend the Canary Islands.fadein11
