Thousands of stars and the soft glow of the Milky Way appear above a Northeast Kingdom treeline in a new photograph by Rick Desrochers. The image was published by North Star Monthly on July 9, 2026, and accompanies an article titled 'What Makes the Northeast Kingdom's Night Skies So Rare.' The Northeast Kingdom is one of the few remaining places in the Eastern U.S. with minimal light pollution, making its night skies a draw for stargazers.
