We are excited to announce that we have submitted our application to begin the process of certifying the NWNC area as a Dark Sky Community through Dark Skies International. This undertaking has been made possible with significant support from Top Shelf Distillers in Perth, ON.

Sao Paulo, Brazil at night, showing a patchwork of mercury VS sodium vapor lighting visible from @Space_Station.
Older mercury vapor lighting is seen as blueish-green in the older, center part of town while yellow sodium vapor lighting appears in the newer surrounding regions. The coastal region of Santos shows an abrupt lighting edge at the Atlantic Ocean.
