Hello
For my science fair which is in 27 days I am thinking of using a digital camera to measure sky glow which basically means i'm going around at night taking photos to measure when is the best time to star gaze but i don't know if it is a project that has enough science in it to do it for the science fair.

Dear WilliamCarey,
That looks like a fun project. And if you can form a testable hypothesis that can be examined with well-designed experiments, then there is probably enough "science in it." How would you alter the posted procedure to answer a new question? Perhaps something related to optics...
Something to consider though... The project states it takes 2-4 weeks to complete. It's possible that, unless you get started SOON, you may not finish the project in time.
Best regards,
