About My Self Hello, friends, I am Anurag Garg, working as an Educator at Nehru Planetairum, Delhi. Since childhood I've been astro person. I am not that conventional amateur astronomer who would spentnights and nights in taking images through his DSLR and big GPS telescope but rather I always trusted my eyes or I should say I have prefered my eyes over the instrumetns. I just lovespending nights after night with the just myself and stars.
I found this a very interesting idea to quntify the night time light pollution in cities through out the India and may be also for whole of the world. Although, I am still getting confusedwith areas defined in this system with the conventioanl constellation figures. So, once I getuse to this I will try to contribute little more with the data for different nights and places
Few of my first data points taken in last couple of nights are given in this xls file. I hopeeveryone finds it useful. www.nehruplanetarium.org/taarewiki/data/anurag.xls?
