> Welcome to DarkSiteFinder.com – stop by the new Dark Sites Page

If you have never seen a clear, starry sky from a place devoid of light
pollution then you don’t know what you’re missing. With the naked eye alone from
a dark site you’ll see thousands of stars, meteors, the zodiacal light, airglow,
satellites, the milky way, nebulas, and occasionally auroras and comets. Check
out the Photography page to get an idea. If you bring a telescope or even
binoculars you’ll see more detail than you could ever expect to see from a
city. I created this website for those who are interested in finding a dark
place to observe the night sky or capture the heavens. In the past finding a
dark sky was easy: just drive a few miles outside of town. But with increasing
light pollution, even driving 50 miles away from a major city isn’t enough to
clearly see the stars. Finding a pristine sky is not as easy as it once was. But
you can use the Map on this site to help you.


The Perseid meteor shower was breathtaking from Brockway Mountain in Michigan.

Tip: Before looking for a dark site, consider what it is you want to see. For
many people getting to a 100% dark sky is not possible without spending an
entire day driving. But if you look for a site where the sky is only dark in the
direction you want to observe, it becomes easier. For example if you want to see
the core of the milky way galaxy, look for a place that is dark to the south
with no major cities in that direction.
