Talked with a guy at a truck stop who told me the Milky Way looks different from every angle
He was an old long-hauler who said he's seen the night sky from 48 states and claims each spot shows you a different slice of the galaxy. Made me realize I've been staring at the same backyard view for 10 years - anyone else ever driven somewhere random just to see how the stars change?

Did you try just picking a random highway and pulling over after an hour? Worked for me in Colorado, totally different sky than what I see back home.

Picking a random highway" is exactly what I did in New Mexico. Pulled over near some bluffs and the stars looked like they were close enough to touch.
