Not just the stars. I like hiking & cross-country skiing at night, simply because there's such a different view of the world. Or even just sitting out in the yard in the summer, listening to the owls talk.
Not only do people lose connections, they start making up their own fantasies, like the nonsense about a blue moon being the second full moon in a month, when in fact it is nothing more or less than the moon appearing blue. Which it does, rarely: I've seen it twice.
