The satellite photo was intended to highlight the fact that the area is rural, more so than "dark" at night (the darkest night time skies in CT are in the very NW corner). Please have a listen to the podcast ( https://AmazingTalesCT.Podbean.com ) to learn about the 700,000 acres of land in eastern CT and south-central MA that is 85% undeveloped, some of it nearly the same as when the Native Americans were the only inhabitants. For info on dark skies (including maps), try this site: https://www.darksky.org
