Sadly their emergency services may be exasperated with urban citizens who have sighted some sort of malicious UAP, because nobody remembers what the Milky Way looks like in 2025.

If you don't already know the state of the night sky, https://darksitefinder.com/ is a great resource.
(If you love the stars, it'll also leave you depressed. There are very few locations left where it's pitch dark at night)

Personally, I’ve been using cleardarksky.com: https://www.cleardarksky.com/csk/
Once you dial in a local observatory, you’ll enjoy hour-by-hour visibility forecasts. It’s been invaluable for my unassisted-eye stargazing activities!
non-sarcastically, the night sky in Spain and Portugal must be absolutely stunning right now
