I was driving today and realized we should just ban lights. It would be a lot better if we could encourage the atmosphere to shoot star light through everything all the time. People don't really like the sun--I especially don't like the sun. Almost all the time I try to avoid the sun and can't really think of any positive features to the sun. If there were anything good about the sun, it would be that the sun encourages the moon, and the moon helps cause storms which get rid of the sun.
Think how much better life would be if instead of the sun we could just have a starry night all the time. Even if we kept the sun in such a scenario I'd want it to look more like the moon. Maybe a sort of pale yet encouraging blue-ish hue.
In any case, we would all be a lot happier in a realm of eternal night. I think people instinctively realize this, and that's why images of Neo-Asia that are always cropping up continue to crop up. Suppose we could just have a realm of eternal night with encouraging star-elements shining through the terrestrial stuff. All we really need is to encourage the atmosphere to tune out nearby stars like the sun while encouraging distant stars, maybe even those we can't see. I feel like we evidence of this being the optimal goal from a lot of different media.
Think about the famous episode "Waltz for Venus" in Cowboy Bebop which looks a lot like Castle in the Sky by Miyazaki. There is a great deal of evidence that planets and Japanese among other peoples, including Africa and South America and parts of the Middle East really see the virtues of obtaining to this goal. We can finally get rid of the sun and nearby stars while tuning in to other planets and distant galaxies. This is obviously a lot better than being blinded by the sun all the time for 12 hours a day.
There's probably no reason we couldn't really obtain this result except that conceptually we like storms, like I said before. The world is always better and more tolerable before during and after a storm. But if we were able to remove storms from the picture we could probably immediately transform global warming into a useful aurora and never have to deal with the sun again.
