New Bill Would Create 'Dark Skies' Rules in NY, Force State to Go Dark After 11PM
About this episode
A new piece of legislation working its way through the New York State Assembly is called the "Dark Skies Protection Act."
For many years, the people of New York have struggled to see the stars at night. Even if you live in upstate New York—100, or 200 miles away from the city—the glow from the city is still enough to mask the sky at night.
However, a new law may be about to change that—but to do so, it would bring about serious statewide changes that might increase the crime rate.
