Trust nothing

I remember famously that during the blackout of New York in 2003, 911 took a number of calls from concerned citizens that were strange lights in the sky. They were stars.

Well, you can't see the stars from a lot of places. I live in a small town here, but I'm surrounded by large industrial cities that are always very well lit. It's very rare to see the stars because the bright city lights outglow them. Unfortunately, light pollution is a real problem.

I think the first time I actually saw a full starry sky was on vacation in an area far away from any cities. I was almost 20.

I mean... at my house I can hardly see the stars anymore :(

It is if you ask Sol.

Like, idk, a telescope or something to make sure it isn't drone even if they can't see the planet itself.

On clear nights, in areas without light pollution, planets can look huge and bright like an airplane or helicopter.

I guess the real question is, why would a spy plane have its lights on?

It's true. Remember how Pluto used to be to a planet? Well it was... right up until I shot that sum bitch.

Happened to me quite often when I was on lookout on a ship. Once the commander heard it and took out his phone to show me the current location of the planets. I head mistaken the low-orbit Venus for something artificial through NV and binos. That damn planet is blinking red and green
