Bryan Boulanger remembers when he saw, really saw, the night sky.

It was October 2007. Boulanger was camping with two friends in the Guadalupe Mountains in Texas, where he had just started teaching civil engineering at Texas A&M University. He was 31 years old.

“We slept on the ground, and the night sky was amazing,” he said. “It was so fantastic, it was hard to fall asleep.”
