The British Astronomical Assocation (BAA) and the Campaign to Protect Rural England (CPRE) have joined together to run a festive star counting campaign as part of the ongoing Campaign for Dark Skies (CfDS).
If you're in the UK between 20th and 24th December you can help the campaign by counting the stars you can see within the rectangular area of the constellation of Orion.
For full details of how to do this and why this campaign is important, please visit the following external sites:
