Help us monitor the night sky
Learn about light pollution and how to take Sky Quality measurements
As part of our ‘Starry Starry Nights’ project we are looking for volunteers to join a team to better understand and promote the benefits of dark skies and to educate people and organisations on light pollution.
You'll work with the Chase & Chalke team and learn how to take Sky Quality Measure (SQM) readings. Once you're trained, you'll be able to take these measurements wherever you are, and report the results back to the Chase & Chalke team.
These readings will help us to better understand our dark skies.
Volunteers may also be interested in undertaking further research around the topics and themes emerging from the project. Other volunteer roles may include helping out at dark sky events, taking part in free training and working with other volunteers to establish community events.
