you know you're astro-obsessed when...

...you're looking to buy a new house, and you check to see the light pollution maps and the sky field of view before you figure out it's going to take you 1hr longer to drive to work every day.



Your turn. What have you done recently that made you stop and think "Whoah, I'm taking this too far"?

I don't know
First I had trouble with trees so I built a new house where there are no trees. Even lent my son $120000 to help him buy the old one. I wish I could get him to pay it back! Then built an observatory with a dome to keep out the light.

Now I have decided that the city is too light polluted so I have sold my observatory and bought a caravan and equipment suitable to transport to dark sites.
