The Boyden Observatory is not next to the light pollution from "next door neighbours" anymore. It is right in the glow. Not long before the Milky Way will be an image on the screen and not a magnificent object in the Boyden night sky.

Earth Observation Group (EOG)
The NGDC Earth Observation Group (EOG) specializes in nighttime
observations of lights and combustion sources worldwide. The group
started working with DMSP data in 1994 and has produced a time series of
annual cloud-free composites of DMSP nighttime lights. EOG's current
focus is on nighttime VIIRS data.
