Stargazing in Las Vegas Antoine Grelin

Las Vegas is famous for its bright casinos, its active nightlife and its iconic hotels such as the Luxor, shining the strongest light beam in the world... It is almost impossible to believe that the area around Las Vegas is also home to some of the darkest skies in the world. Each place listed in this book is rated by the quality of its sky and the distance from the Strip. It also contains a representation of what to expect for the Milky Way, the iconic Andromeda galaxy and the Great Orion nebula. Maps and directions are also attached, as well as information about the quality of the cell-phone coverage, the safety in the area, and the distance to the closest gas station, restaurant and hospital. With a wide selection of sites, facts and visual aids, Stargazing in Las Vegas takes the reader to places where starlight rules over Strip lights.
