Chicago stargazers have been dealing with a surprising, yet unpleasant, side effect of the pandemic: increased light pollution and smoke from the wildfires that have been obscuring the night sky. The Chicago Astronomer, a local astronomy club, has noticed a significant decrease in the visibility of stars in the city, which can be attributed to the increase in light pollution. The smoke from the wildfires has added to the problem, making it even more difficult to observe the stars.
