On a clear night at Pozo Negro the sky opens in slow motion: a cratered moon hangs above low volcanic ridges while the Milky Way slices a pale river across the vault of night. Guests recline on rugs around a rough stone circle as a Starlight Guide trained by the Canary Islands Astrophysics Institute points out planets, constellations and the occasional meteor.
