One of the experiences I’m looking forward to most is floating out on the ocean about as far from man-made lights as a human can get and on a clear night being able to see the Milky Way. In Norway or “out west” in the US the Milky Way is visible on cloudless nights, sometimes impressive, sometimes not so much. But I often go years between viewings. Since this trip will be through most of March there should be enough night to get a pretty good look at it. Will be posting pictures of possible from a moving ship. If I’m not so lucky, here is a beautiful, (but borrowed), picture of the item in question.
