When I was a kid I would go atop Powder Horn hill in chelsea Ma. and lay
on my back ain august as wath a great show of shooting stars. That was
over 65 years ago. my thoughts are that either the air is more
poluted,or space dust is less dense in this spacetime??


Beeeert, sounds to me like there might be a third option that people of your
vintage should consider: your eyesight has degenerated.
Besides, it is never a good idea to drink a lot of beer and then lay on your
back looking up, especially in an area where seagulls are present.



No seagulls at night, Hagar.
