Walking in the night and looking to the sky and wondering what is actually there? Well the simple answer could be, anything you can imagine. So you try to stargaze in your city but its almost impossible. The streetlights are not allowing you to do so. So you try going in the fields nearby or the forest but the sky is still not that dark. Well the best way to stargaze is to go some place that is far away from the place with lights and to be sure that the moon is not present or to be just as small as possible.
