#nightstudies — Public Fediverse posts

#Night is the time, when the #sun is below the #horizon and #astronomically the period between sunset/sunrise with maximum possible #darkness. #Nighttime controls #biologicalrhythms in organisms, influences the #human psyche, and #limits our everyday #actions. However, according to C.C.M. Kyba et al.(2020), #interdisciplinary #nightstudies are necessary, but not yet fully established.

It's not actually about the night, but it would be awesome if people who are interested in #NightStudies apply 🌚
