Oh brilliant stelliferous sky how you make our hearts weep. Too much? Most of us don't get excited about stars, constellations and the like. Maybe that's because we've spent too much of our lives looking up into the same night sky dulled by light pollution from homes and skyscrapers.

Get out and venture to some of the world's more remote places where the night skies rival the majesty of the Sistine Chapel's ceiling. We guarantee you'll lose time admiring these natural canvasses.

Don't believe us? Take a look at what you're missing.
