Light and noise pollution are definitely major problems for wildlife as well.

This is correct. Also, it’s not a single image but a mosaic of multiple images.

Totally normal 🙂 first time I saw a true dark sky I was literally dumbstruck... Just absolutely in awe. So, I'd say you're pretty normal 😉

No light pollution in a rural area. Makes a huge difference!
For the next full moon, will you join me in a bit of rural crazy?
I go outside and literally howl at the moon. It refreshes my soul. Besides, the last time I talked with my 90-year-old uncle, he said "Keep doing it, kid. Do it for me." (I'm 59, so being called "kid" is quite a compliment.)

It is so beautiful, that I agree it's normal. I wonder if Abraham who would have seen them often, but who saw them in a new way when he received the promise, would have cried then too. I'm a bit sad that I live in town now and can't see the stars like when I grew up out of town. Especially now that I have glasses. Enjoy the ride!

When I grew up the Milkway wasn't an uncommon sight on a clear dark night.
There was a car dealership a few miles from our house and when they'd have a sale with their stupid search light the stars would get drowned out.
Over the years light from all kinds of wasteful uses became more and more common and the only time I see the Milkyway now is in places like you've described.
Go back again some night when the moon is newer.

If you've never seen a clear, dark, stary sky I think being overwhelmed a bit is very natural. It is in a true sense of the word - awesome.

I would say it is a normal human reaction, nothing wrong with it at all. More so if you haven't seen something like that in your entire life. The upside is, it sounds like this will never get old for you.

Interesting, so this can also be misused by other governments then right

Someone run "cosmic bubble around universe" into mid journey and see what pops out.
