Pathfinder II
I gotta say the full moon keeps the spooky away for the night, however, the stars are magnificent in the middle of nowhere it’s a hard choice....

You must be down around Marfa.

No several hours from me. I did grow up (after my stepdad left the military and we moved back to Texas) somewhat close to Roswell and the Lubbock lights in the 50s were still talked about when I was a kids.

I did stumbled into the International UFO conference in Roswell last year when I was out traveling. I had no ideal until I had some mail forwarded to Roswell about a week before the event.

I like both. A full moon is great for night hikes and a new moon is great for watching meteor showers.

That is a tough one. Full moon does provide a lot of light. Sometimes enough to save me from having to use my lights and battery in camp. However I do sometimes take my telescope on trips, and I love to sit under a dark sky and just gaze up at the beautiful universe.

Depends on elevation. Stars are incredible over 10K' but a full moon is spectacular anywhere. I'll pick the moon.

Stars, its one of the pure joys of my life to lay on my back at 1-2 in the morning outside while camping and just watch the stars I have been doing it since I was little and still do it to this day and I am in my early 50's
Stars, absolutely. Mariners navigate by both.
