The visibility of stars in the night sky is rapidly decreasing – study

A research team from the Ruhr University analyzed more than 50,000 naked-eye observations of stars from 2011 to 2022 as part of the scientific project "The Globe at Night", during which it turned out that people around the world see fewer and fewer stars in the night sky. This is due to an increase in the brightness of the sky by 7-10% per year, according to the results of the study published by the journal Science.
