The Jump-Up Dark-Sky Sanctuary


About this site

From this vantage point atop The Jump-Up Dark-Sky Sanctuary, you can see the future site of the new Museum of Natural History, as well as the endless flat country that stretches out towards the horizon. This position allows us to monitor the Museum's construction, the restoration of plant species and the site's seasonal changes, from drought periods to lush green vegetation. Although it may seem static, this dynamic landscape supports abundant life both day and night. We are dedicated to safeguarding this site for present and future generations. Your input is invaluable in shaping our environmental and lighting management strategies for the area.
