Illustrated International Dark Sky Week scavenger hunt card with sixteen prompts about night skies and lighting.

Caption as posted: "Michigan Governor, Gretchen Whitmer declared an International Dark Sky Week in Michigan following the mission of the IDA where International Dark Sky Week is celebrated annually and was established in 2003 by high school student, Jennifer Barlow.

A colorful illustrated poster has a blue header reading “INTERNATIONAL DARK SKY WEEK” and “SCAVENGER HUNT.” A four-by-four grid contains cartoon images of a bat, outdoor lights, people, houses, a law book, stars, a globe, a planet, clothing, an envelope, a lantern, a storefront, a neighborhood, an open book, and a social-media button. A blue footer includes additional instructions, logos, website addresses, and a hashtag.

A model wrote this. It was shown the image and the catalogue record together, and asked to keep them apart — what it saw is here, what the record told it is under "taken from the record" below. It is still wrong often enough to matter, about who is pictured, where, when, and what is happening. Read it as a way to find the image, never as evidence about it. If you can correct it, please do: write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com, or see how corrections work. Someone who recognises a face or a shoreline knows more than the model did.

Taken from the record

Not observed in the image — supplied by the archive's own catalogue, and repeated here so the two stay distinguishable.

The catalogue record identifies this as a digital image posted to a Facebook page on 2022-04-22 and credits the Beaver Island Association. The accompanying post caption discusses a Michigan gubernatorial declaration of International Dark Sky Week and the program's history, purpose, and scavenger hunt.

Why this archive publishes it. Public Facebook groups and pages run by island organisations and residents. Each item credits the poster by name and links to the original post. Removal on request.

Material goes off the web without anyone deciding that it should: a host lapses, a gallery is retired, a link stops resolving. Holding a copy — with its provenance, its checksum and its holder's terms recorded beside it — is much of why this archive exists. If you are looking for something whose original has since gone, write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com and a full-size copy of what is held here will be sent to you.

Recorded verbatim from the provenance sidecar taken at retrieval — this archive does not restate a holder's terms in its own words, does not add a restriction the holder did not state, and does not abridge one.

The archive holds its own copy of that file and will supply it on request; it is not re-served here, because the holder serves it better and a second copy is a second thing to go stale.
