Dark Land, Darks Skies subverts conventional astronomy by repopulating the night sky with myths from oral traditions which were overtaken by the classical naming of constellations and planets as astronomy developed in the sixteenth and seventeenth century. Astronomer Martin Griffiths includes star charts and other helpful materials for star-gazing.

Martin Griffiths is senior lecturer in Astronomy at the University of South Wales, and founder member of NASA’s Astrobiology Science Communication team. He assisted the Brecon Beacon national parks successful campaign to gain International dark sky status and in 2014 became Director of the Brecon Beacon Observatory, a public educational resource at the National Park's Visitor Centre. He is the local representative for the BAA campaign for Dark Skies.
