Over the past couple of years my hometown in the NWT worked to become the world's largest dark sky preserve. As you likely know, A dark-sky preserve is an area, usually surrounding a park or observatory, that is kept free of artificial light pollution.

I just got a word of it on facebook that the area was designated officially by the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada. bw!

so, come visit :D
