Rock ’n’ roll was born from a spirit of rebellion that questioned authority and the traditional morality of the Christian church. And for many Christian leaders, it was clear that rock music paved the way to damnation. To them, everything about rock ’n roll clearly spoke of the "Devil’s Music" - from its roots in African-American culture to its hip-shimmying rhythms and less-than-pious lyrics.

In many places, light pollution means that people can no longer see the stars at night. It’s a hindrance to scientific and astronomical research, and a profound cultural loss. Many people will never know what it means to gaze at a starry sky. In Europe, Spain is one of the best places for star-gazing. In parts of the country, the night sky has become a huge draw for astronomers and tourists alike.

Following years in isolation, Iran has reentered the international stage - which for some is cause for alarm. Tehran is now engaging in dialogue and has agreed to curb its nuclear program. But it is also involved in wars in Syria and Yemen - running the risk of upsetting the sensibilities of old enemies such as Israel, Saudi Arabia and the US. Donald Trump has now ditched the Iran nuclear deal.
