Hey everyone,
Have a look at the images attached to this post. These were taken of the same location in the sky at the same time of day. August 1, September 7, October 4 in that order. The fourth picture is the same as the third, other than my own addition to it to highlight some of the more obvious changes.
I haven't finished going through all of the images yet but the stars are going out. Sometimes one a week, sometimes one a night. Averages out to something like ten to twelve per month from what I can see. Maybe more, since the tablet camera doesn't pick up every star all that well, and the trees get in the way.
For now, I have enough of a star chart to navigate by, so long as those stars don't go dark. I'll let you all know if Doctor Ingram or I see a change in the rate of losses.
If anyone can control cloud layers and wants to give me a clear sky every now and then, I'd appreciate it.
((Here's a cool animated version! Thanks, Xy!))

I get it. I still refer to parts of the day as morning based on when I got out of bed. We just don't really have a term for 24 hours of night.
[Which is weird. Cause they have terms for like: morning, noon, dusk, dawn, etc. But he realizes that's not really the point.]
Good idea. Well, next time you try to sketch and it's cloudy let me know. It would be a good excuse to test out if my power has a reach like that.]

You know, if you can fly, I want you with me next time I'm out in the woods. Could use that for scouting routes.
