Hi John

With clearer skies expected this weekend, we’re keeping Star Count open for submissions until Sunday 26 February .

We want to give as many people as possible a chance to count the stars in the
constellation of Orion and help us map the nation’s view of the night sky.

Each count will help us get an idea of where light pollution is most severe and
work with local councils and others to do something about it.

Are you ready to get counting? Each count makes a difference!

Submit your Star Count
[[link removed]]Here’s a reminder of how to take part:

1) Find a good spot to do your Star Count which is south-facing.

2) If you’re doing your Star Count from home, turn off all the lights in your
home so it’s as dark as possible and go outside.

3) Look south in the night sky (the way satellite dishes face) and find the
constellation of Orion. Look out for Orion’s belt (see image below).



4) Let your eyes adjust to the dark – the longer you wait, the better (we
recommend at least 20 minutes). Count the number of stars you can see within the
rectangle formed by the four corner stars. You count the ‘belt’, but not the
corner stars.

5) Head to our website
