GLOBE at Night 2012 in the News
A new Audio Podcast (February, 2012) features the Dark Skies Crusader, GLOBE at Night’s February campaign and the “Adopt-a-Street” program.
Join the Dark Skies Crusader in our latest 6-minute audio podcast for February 1 at 365daysofastronomy.org. Two cities are pitched against each other in a fictitious competition to take the most GLOBE at Night data by having teams "adopt-a-street". The challenge is afoot between Denver and Tucson to take measurements every mile along streets for as far as they can. For you to take measurements, compare what you see to 7 different charts on the webapp. Then report the charts you choose either in real time or afterwards on-line on the webapp. If you want to report in real time, you use any smart mobile phone or tablet. Then your location, date and time are entered automatically. Be the city with the most measurements and your city will be featured on the GLOBE at Night web page and Facebook page. Adopt-a-street in your city during the February 12-21 campaign!
