While living in Regina, Saskatchewan, the author developed a fascination with the early morning darkness, intertwined with his unique appreciation for the city's emptiness and crime. A chance encounter with a dark-sky preserve in Ontario led him to Grasslands National Park in Saskatchewan to experience true darkness. There, he witnessed a breathtaking starry sky and reflected on the ecological and cultural impacts of light pollution, and the significance of dark sky preservation for humanity's future.
