Statistics

Scientific paper

Year after year light pollution has eroded the night sky to such an extent that it threatens the existing areas of dark skies in the countryside as well. A large percentage of the light is not reaching the ground, where it is needed: it goes outward and upward in a totally useless manner. Light pollution affects the observing statistics, and the meteor observers' health. That is why the actions to preserve or extend the existent observational facilities must be intensified. Meteor observers from all over the world warn about and must be warned about the danger of losing sight of the night sky.
