2015 is UNESCO's Year of Light, which in the case of the Rhon Biosphere in Germany refers to starlight. The Biosphere which was declared an IDA Dark Sky Reserve in 2014 seeks to protect natural nightscapes, the night sky and all the animals living in the area from unwanted light pollution.

To compliment the organisation's educational output the Rhon Biosphere has chosen to screen INSIDE THE MILKY WAY to its visitors. If you’d like to learn more about the International Dark Sky Association and what makes a dark sky reserve check out their website here.
