Following the advent of electric light a little more than a century ago, we've transformed half our world - the world at night - into a new environment. From our view of the stars to nearly every living thing, light at night is making an impact. Ken Walczak, the senior manager of Far Horizons at the Adler Planetarium and a board member of DarkSky International, discusses what's been discovered and what we can do about this important issue that affects us all in both small and great ways.
