Yes, and no... I can be going about my day and notice that there's 3 shirts out of place in a clothing rack in a store, and later identify them by color(s) and the order they were in.. it's semi-controllable if I have complete quiet in that I can definitely absorb more, but random shots of crap I can't control for some reason... and that includes memories that I would like to forget sometimes. PTSD is a major bitch when you can't flush thoughts.

I can recommend astronomy as a hobby. It does clear the mind, and my usual twinge of agoraphobia/social anxiety goes far, far away. cn

Oh I do wish.
Ten years ago, when I moved here, the skies were good to excellent. Much local development, and the great light smear from the Great Central C̶e̶s̶s̶p̶i̶t̶ Valley have pretty much ruined things. Five years ago i could trace the zodiacal light from horizon to horizon and detect NGC 147 in 20x90s. Now its brighter neighbor NGC 185 is lost in the skyglow. And going farther upslope is a no-go. Damned pines. cn

When I lived in Arkansas, we were (my step dad measured it because he was anal retentive like that) 6.2 miles from the nearest town border. No street lights, no skyglow, just an acre and a half surrounded by trees, with nothing between you and the stars except the occasional cloud.
That's why Arkansas is on my short-list for possible places to move to.
EDIT : I can still remember the first time I saw a satellite in orbit, you could see it with your naked eye, watched it go all the way across the sky.

Watching satellites track across the sky has done more for my familiarity with the constellations than any one other thing. The website heavens-above is a wonderful resource. I used to make a game out of lying in wait (with my 10x70s) for satellites emerging from shadow. You can put your coordinates into the site, and it'll generate maps with location and time. That inspired me to keep a wristwatch accurate to within a second. cn
