Ready, steady… count! The CRE Star Count event begins today, so when you’ve got a clear night near you, take a moment to look up at the sky and tell them how many stars you can see in Orion. Your results will help them create a map showing the best places to enjoy the stars, and will also support their work to combat light pollution and reclaim our dark skies. It doesn’t take long to take part and makes a great family activity.
They’ll be taking submissions until 23 February, but the skies look set to be clear tonight, which makes for perfect stargazing…
