A small crew, chasing the dark.
LINTANG started in 2019 with one telescope and a stubborn belief that everyone should see a real night sky at least once. We're now a team of four, a roster of seven sites, and a lot of thermoses.
We measure the dark
so we don't lose it.
Light pollution grows about two percent a year. Every site on our roster is logged, graded and revisited — partly so we can run good nights, and partly to keep a record of which skies are still worth protecting. When we guide a group, we're also making the case that dark skies are worth keeping dark.
Four people who
stay up late.
Portraits are placeholders — real photos of the team drop straight into these rings.
Arif Pratama
Built LINTANG in 2019 after a decade chasing eclipses. Knows every ridge on this list by feel.
Dewi Wulandari
Teaches the camera workshops. Her core-of-the-galaxy print hangs in our Malang studio.
Reza Saputra
Keeps the scopes collimated and the convoys on time. Can find Polaris in under five seconds.
Maya Kusuma
Runs the off-grid retreats end to end, from the kitchen to the last constellation of the night.

a real night.
Bring friends, bring a camera, or just bring yourself. We'll handle the rest.
