Light pollution is a growing problem
all over the world, including Pakistan.
It not only affects the visibility of the
night sky but also has a significant
impact on the environment, human
health, and wildlife. To combat this
issue, we propose to provide 6 Sky
Quality Meters (SQM) in Pakistan to
individuals and organizations actively
working on dark sky protection efforts.
The Sky Quality Meter - L is an
affordable and portable device that
measures the brightness of the night
sky in magnitudes per square
arcsecond. It has unprecedented
sensitivity and precision, making it an
ideal tool for monitoring and
documenting the evolution of light
pollution in an area.
