Protecting the night sky isn’t an initiative you hear many park activists touting, but for areaslike Capitol Reef National Park, it’s a major mission. Isolated by the white sandstone cliffs of theWaterpocket Fold and with mostly cloudless weather conditions, it’s ideal for stargazing. Now,after more than a decade of projects to educate both staff and visitors about light pollution,the park has finally earned the International Dark-Sky Association’s Gold Star designation,which should help boost the park’s growing astro-tourism industry. The park celebrates this fallwith an expanded schedule of events at the annual Heritage Starfest (Oct. 9 to 10).
很多公园都不会主张保护夜晚的天空,但在国会礁国家公园(Capitol Reef National Park),这是一项重要任务。这里被水袋凹地(Waterpocket Fold)的白砂礁石所隔绝,拥有常年晴朗的气候,格外适合观星。十几年来,公园一直在对员工和游客进行光污染方面的教育,公园也赢得了国际黑暗天空协会的金星奖,有助于提升公园的天文旅游。今年秋天,公园将在年度的遗产观星节上(10月9日至10日)推出一项附加活动以示庆祝。
