- Related Blog: I saw Milky Way
I would like to see the best view of the Milky Way Galaxy possible with my own naked eyes, preferably at someplace in the continental US (48 states). I guess I will take a trip for 1-2 nights. I am willing to spend x amount of money.
I can use your help. Let me know if:
- You own or know an Airbnb location where viewing of Milky Way is possible.
- If you know places where I can go to view Milky Way.
- If you know astronomy clubs, you can recommend them.
- If you want to go with me or meet up with me there.
- If you know of Milky Way viewing events.
- If you have anything to tell me about it.
So far, all I know is that the best time to view Milky Way is the Summer months centering July. I have about 5 months (20 weeks) to get ready. So, the search is on.
The only picture of the Milky Way I photographed so far.
PS. Next on my list is to see Northern Lights (Aurora) – Which will require me to travel to Alaska or Canada. After that, I will travel to Texas or New York to see Total Solar Eclipse on April 8, 2024.
From what I heard being way
From what I heard being way up in the Colorado Rockies is supposed to be good viewing. It’s away from pollution sources (both light and air pollution) and less air between you and the rest of the galaxy. Best if you can camp out as lodging places and airBnB usually are on streets with light.
