On a clear night, with no air-pollution or light-pollution, and no moon, you can see approximately 6000 stars with the naked eye :smilie4:
If there was no light pollution, you'd be able to see precisely zero stars.Quote:

You're wrong. :dry:
This I've got to see. :mellow:
I'm trying to see the seven sisters, yeah? I can only see one blob of light due to the light pollution coming from the other stars.
Light pollution comes from stars too - therefore if there was no light pollution at all, you'd not be able to see any stars.
no sun = no light

I can't be held responsible for your poor eyesight. :dabs:
Anyway, the seven sisters are a cliff formation on the south coast between Brighton and Eastbourne. You must have been looking at teh Pleiades :smilie4:
