The Perseid Meteor Shower blazes across the sky. Star clusters and the Ring Nebula grace the night.

I really need to get a telescope and move away from the city. Maybe I'll become an amateur exoplanet hunter. That sounds like fun.

Odds are you will need to get away from the bright lights and neon from the urban environment to see all that is described within.
Nature boy, I am not. But getting away occasionally to the back woods just to really see the night sky is pretty fascinating.
Oh, and typically the bugs make me stay away for a couple of years from the remote regions.
