A new atlas has illustrated that 80% of North Americans are prevented from seeing the Milky Way's bulge by light pollution:
The luminous glow of light pollution prevents nearly 80 percent of people in North America from seeing the Milky Way in the night sky. That's according to a new atlas of artificial night sky brightness that found our home galaxy is now hidden from more than one-third of humanity.
While there are countries were the majority of people still live under pristine, ink-black sky conditions — places such as Chad, Central African Republic and Madagascar — more than 99 percent of the people living in the U.S. and Europe look up and see light-polluted skies.
The country with the worst light-pollution is Singapore, where researchers found that "the entire population lives under skies so bright that the eye cannot fully dark-adapt to night vision." Other countries with large percentages of people living under skies this bright include Qatar, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates.

They wanted it like this. They polluted the night sky intentionally. They also got to poison us with Mercury-filled lights, lowering intelligence in newborns.
Soon, there will be generations that have never seen a star in the sky. They will be told there is nothing out there or it is so far away it is impossible to reach, and they will believe it. Then a one-world government can be put in place and humanity will not care, "knowing" that this is the only place with life and will accept open Jewish control. At this time the Jews have to hide behind governments and banks to do their thing; they have to use governments to declare war on unfriendlies. They want to change that and control the people openly.
