Download Losing the Dark - a Short Public Service Announcement on Light Pollution
To help raise public awareness of some of the issues pertaining to light pollution, Loch Ness Productions in collaboration with the International Dark-Sky Association has created Losing the Dark in fulldome video format for digital planetarium use, and also as a conventional flat screen video. It's on YouTube in English, French, German, Hindi, Polish, and Spanish for online viewing, sharing and embedding on blogs and Web pages. With more languages coming soon.
This page contains downloads in various video formats, so Losing the Dark can be used in classrooms, kiosks, museum theaters, and advocate multimedia presentations. Classic planetarium theaters without fulldome capability can show this version using their traditional video projectors.
We have just a few requests:
• Please show Losing the Dark unaltered, in its entirety.
• Please tell audiences how they can get more information about light pollution and how to combat it — by referring them to the International Dark-Sky Association Web site: www.darksky.org.
