It's my favorite part about going back and visiting home in Nevada. My mom's house is high on a hill over Reno (NV hill, in the US Mid-Atlantic it would be a mountain) so it's outside of the city light pollution. I can go in the yard and look up and actually map out a bunch of constellations.

When I lived in DC for a few years, I was lucky to pick out 10 stars at night.

Now in an east cost suburb, I can see stars, but still nowhere near the level of the Nevadan night sky.
