Hi~~

Human invasive use of outdoor and artificial lightning (AKA light pollution) has made us less able to see the sky and the stars. Light pollution affects our visual abilities to see objects in the sky by altering the colors and contrast of the night-sky, which makes astronomers less able to study the skies.
