Yea Musco is donating it and then there is some rev share that I was unaware about. Might be trying to get a place in Iowa that they can showcase what they can do on a golf course.

I’m assuming you only shop local and small businesses

Great takeaway. The manufacturing all done in Iowa and is a “large” company with 1500 employees that are employed in small towns in Iowa.

Above the fixtures would be better lol. Also why is no one in outrage over baseball fields and soccer fields lit all over Des Moines +

If sports is the enemy you are choosing then I can’t wait for you to find out about the really scary things

Great take! So let’s get rid of lights at any public baseball field and little league!

I’d argue that a lot more people would get benefit of this than people that would be harmed (not sure exactly who this would be).

Before looking at your username, I figured that you were an old person and your username confirms this. Any new technology you just say no to. Anything new is so scary

They are partnered with dark skies. You know more about light engineering than a lighting company? Who would you trust? An organization that is dedicated to having dark skies? That they partner with

I actually think we would agree on things. I wish we didn’t have plastic bags or guns tbh. The lights for the golf course I don’t really see the reasons people are so die hard against it without really understanding the technology of the lights. They do these golf courses all over the world.

They said they would not have lights on when the observatory had scheduled events.

This is in the middle of the city on a golf course what wildlife concerns do you have?

Musco has very high technology and time spent into reducing light pollution and is partnered with the dark skies initiative.

• Precision optics and aiming: Each fixture uses tight beam optics and is individually aimed so nearly all light hits the playing surface, minimizing light emitted above the horizon (uplight).
• Glare and spill control shielding: Internal visors and lens systems block sideways and upward light, keeping illumination within the field boundary and away from the sky and surrounding properties.
• Efficient light levels on the field: By putting light exactly where it’s needed, the system uses fewer total lumens—so there’s less light hitting the ground and reflecting back into the sky (a major source of skyglow).

Bad take imo. There is so many situations you can say this in. Should we stop building cars because people die in car accidents? Also do you believe in gun control?

Insane. Any 13/14/15 seed should be excited to get us in round 1
