The sky was exceptionally dark last night, with measured values ranging between 21.75 and 21.82 mpsas. Near midnight there wasn't even a whisper of a breeze. The conditions were perfect for sitting in a lounge chair and scanning the Milky Way with binoculars.

The measured sky brightness on the previous night (19 June) was a more typical 21.55 mpsas. There is a lot more airglow visible in the images from that night.
