OUR MISSION

AN IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE INTO THE SELF, THE COSMOS AND THE NATURAL WORLD

Our mission is to rapidly preserve a 600-mile astronomical-wildlife corridor from light pollution’s existential threat to wilderness, astronomy, human health, biodiversity, and future generations.

Dark Sky Land is a New Mexico-based, astro-wildlife preservation organization, intended to create and develop an interdisciplinary context where the arts - space science, ancient culture, community, advocacy, innovation, adventure and the unknown converge.

It takes place in a landscape of natural darkness, where creators, astronomers, native wisdom, conservationists, on foot Continental Divide Trail travelers, national and international adventurers, come together to connect, observe and study the self and the cosmos from earth.

The proximity to the center of an ancient astro-archeological universe, Chaco Canyon, El Mal Pais, Cosmic Campground Sanctuary, and other close by Native Pueblos Land is an inspiration to engage in a multidimensional based experience. Dark Sky Land reconsiders the potential of inclusive collaborations as an innovative and necessary grounded practice.

The Dark Sky Land 600-mile Astro-wilderness corridor, navigates important National Forests such as; the Cibola, the Gila, the Apache, the Aldo Leopold Wilderness Reserve, and the Continental Divide Trail.

We are working close to DarkSky New Mexico International Chapter in order to secure denominations for sanctuaries, parks and reserves along the corridor by 2026, as well as moving forward with the 1999 New Mexico Dark Sky Protection Act’s re-introduction to the Legislature by early 2025.

Join us on this breathtaking, intriguing and immersive voyage into the cosmos and the natural world.
