Her love of the stars has taken the UK resident on “star walking” trips to Iceland and into the Arctic. For nature lovers like Douglas star walking turns out to be a good way to enjoy life. Hiking at night isn’t uncommon. Plenty of people hike after dark to get to campsites or watch sun rise from a mountaintop. Star walking goes a step further by mixing hiking with stargazing. Rather than heading to an observatory or setting up a telescope in your backyard, star walking takes you on a brief journey to look at the stars from different viewpoints. “An observatory can never take the place of getting out into a rural landscape under a blanket of stars,” says Gary Lintern of Stargazing Nights in Durham, England, who leads guided nighttime hikes. “It’s a magical 第4 页/共28 页 （北京）股份有限公司 experience, and I enjoy sharing it, especially at some of my favorite locations, like the High Force Waterfall, England’s largest waterfall, in Teesdale.” There are plenty of studies that show the health benefits of being in nature. Spending at least two hours a week outdoors, particularly while engaging in activities that involve “effortless attention”, can decrease blood pressure, heart rale, and stress levels. Walking at night has the added benefit of improving sleep, which is important for overall health, says Christina Pierpaoli Parker, a behavioral sleep researcher at the University of Alabama. Parker says that star walking works on two physiological processes that determine sleep quality. “Movement and exercise, such as relaxing stargazing walks outside, may facilitate sleep,” she says. Lintern advises reading up on the night sky before setting out. Free mobile apps, such as Star Walk 2, can help identify celestial bodies and are easy to use—simply point your phones at the sky to get a map. Websites like Sky & Telescope and NASA’s Space Place cover the basics, have in-depth explanations forconstellations (星座), and offer advice on gear and equipment. At the end of the day. the best advice is to take it slow and enjoy the journey. 4. Why did Douglas go to lceland? A. To take photos there. B. To enjoy the night sky there. C.
