Globe at Night
Do you want to participate in an astronomy event? It's not as hard as you may think:
Globe at Night -
An international astronomy event to observe the nighttime sky and learn more about light pollution around the world. What you have to do is only to locate the most obvious constellation in the winter sky - the Orions, and then count how many Orions stars you can see in your area (and compare to the given chart).
Look at the details here:

This will help you find your coordinates:

Sisters, girls, ladies, don't do it alone in the dark though. It's dangerous. =) but you can even do it from your windows in the house.
