1977 • 中国安徽省芜湖市南陵县
My mother was from a small town. She said she loved seeing the stars when she was little. The sky was very clear back then. She was able to see the stars even milky way in the sky. Every night after dinner, she sat in the yard, looked up to the sky and learn the constellations with her siblings. She can't see the stars anymore now in the big city since the artificial lights are too bright.
