Welcome to DarkSky Victoria.

Nighttime is becoming increasingly bright. Humans and all creatures on the planet evolved with 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness. The constant lighting is bad for human health as well as the health of animals. Furthermore, the increasing brightness deprives us from enjoying the beauty and the heritage of the night sky.

DarkSky Victoria is a chapter of DarkSky International, a body that supports responsible outdoor lighting. Like the international body, DarkSky Victoria conducts educational outreach, aiming to inform the public how excessive artificial light can harm humans, wildlife, and our climate.

Please support DarkSky Victoria by becoming a member and/or by purchasing one or more of the society's beautiful T-shirts. The T-shirts make great gifts! And they are discounted for members.
