From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
SKYGLOW is an ongoing crowdfunded project exploring light pollution and its impact on cities, as well as North America's endangered dark-sky locations. It is produced by photographers/filmmakers Gavin Heffernan and Harun Mehmedinović, in association with the International Dark-Sky Association. It was funded by a Kickstarter fundraising campaign in 2015.[1]
SKYGLOW was featured on Season 6 of the Discovery Science show Outrageous Acts of Science.[2]
On December 5, 2015, Heffernan and Mehmedinović gave a talk about SKYGLOW at The Annenberg Space for Photography in Los Angeles, and previewed photos and video from their journeys.[3]
