Imagine the Night Sky Without Light Pollution

For Earth Hour, we reimagined seven cities in their full starry glory when their is no light pollution.

Earth Hour is an annual global event that takes place on the last Saturday of March, in which individuals, communities, and businesses around the world turn off their non-essential lights for one hour as a symbol of their commitment to the planet. The event was first held in Sydney, Australia, in 2007, and since then, it has grown into a global movement, with millions of people in over 190 countries participating each year. The aim of Earth Hour is to raise awareness about the environmental challenges facing our planet, and to inspire people to take action to reduce their impact on the environment.

Among the world's largest science centers, the Museum of Science engages millions of people each year to the wonders of science and technology through interactive exhibitions, digital programs, giant screen productions, and preK – 8 EiE® STEM curricula through the William and Charlotte Bloomberg Science Education Center. Established in 1830, the Museum is home to such iconic experiences as the Theater of Electricity, the Charles Hayden Planetarium, and the Mugar Omni Theater. Around the world, the Museum is known for digital experiences such as Mission: Mars on Roblox, and traveling exhibitions such as the Science Behind Pixar. Learn more at https://www.mos.org/
