Beschreibung

Parks at Night unveils the unseen beauty and critical importance of national parks after dark. It explores the unique opportunities these protected lands offer for stargazing and observing nocturnal wildlife, emphasizing the need for dark sky conservation. Discover how light pollution threatens nocturnal ecosystems, impacting animal behavior and obscuring the wonders of the night sky. The book blends scientific insights with folklore, revealing the cultural significance of darkness and the stories it inspires. Beginning with the concept of the "nocturnal park," the book progresses from celestial wonders and astrophotography to the behavior of nocturnal wildlife and the challenges they face. Learn about the cultural astronomy of indigenous peoples and how their knowledge connects them to the land. 

 
Did you know that many animals rely on the darkness for hunting, mating, and navigation, making dark skies essential for their survival? Or that national parks offer some of the last remaining havens for truly dark skies, free from the pervasive glow of urban light? This book provides nature enthusiasts, travelers, and amateur astronomers with practical guidance, scientific information, and captivating stories.

 
By combining conservation biology, cultural anthropology, and astronomy, Parks at Night offers a holistic understanding of the value and vulnerability of these nocturnal environments, empowering readers to protect these precious resources.

Voices of Famous Inventors

Thomas Edison, Thomas Watson,...

Thomas Alva Edison (February 11, 1847 – October 18, 1931) was an American inventor and businessman. He developed many devices that greatly influenced life around the world, including the phonograph, motion picture camera, and a long-lasting, practical electric light bulb. Dubbed "The Wizard of Menlo Park", he was one of the first inventors to apply the principles of mass production and large-scale teamwork to the process of invention, and because of that, he is often credited with the creation of the first industrial research laboratory. The following, from 1908, is a commemoration at the New York Electrical Show of the 50th anniversary of the first Atlantic cable. Thomas Augustus Watson (January 18, 1854 – December 13, 1934) was as a bookkeeper and a carpenter before becoming an assistant to Alexander Graham Bell, aiding in the the invention of the telephone in 1876. He is best known because his name was one of the first words spoken over the telephone. "Mr. Watson, come here, I want to see you," were the first words Bell said using the new invention, according to Bell's laboratory notebook. Guglielmo Marconi (25 April 1874 – 20 July 1937) was an Italian inventor, known for his pioneering work on long distance radio transmission and radio telegraph system. Marconi shared the 1909 Nobel Prize in Physics with Karl Ferdinand Braun "in recognition of their contributions to the development of wireless telegraphy". As an entrepreneur, businessman, and founder of the The Wireless Telegraph & Signal Company in Britain in 1897, Marconi succeeded in making a commercial success of radio by innovating and building on the work of previous experimenters and physicists. The following is from a talk he gave in 1935 about how he received the first transatlantic message by wireless telegraphy.
