well... it's not always night time... it's not always clear skies.. it's not often that a power outage happens in my city to actually see the stars...

If this even remotely resembled “looking at the sky” I seriously doubt there would be much demand or response to it. Fortunately, for the less incurious among us anyway, that’s not what’s happening here.

To get a halfway-decent view of the night sky I'd have to drive about an hour away from my home. To get a good view of the night sky I'd have to fly to another country half a continent away.

Where do you live that you don’t have a good view of the sky within your country?

Europe, I guess. Lots of technologically advanced countries with high urbanization rates and population density, none of the large swathes of undeveloped land in the middle like the US enjoys.

They know, they just cant see it because they live in cities.

Light pollution has made damn sure that we don't know. If you live in a city (statistically extremely likely) it's a drive of few hundred km to a place where one can see anything remotely similar. If you're lucky.

Yes but I'd have to drive way out into the Southern California desert on a moonless night to have a chance to see it. Those areas aren't exactly safe.

They’re perfectly safe. You’re much more at risk of trouble in the city.
