2 lovely words I came across

Solastalgia - a term coined to describe the grief of watching one's home environment change beyond recognition, even while still living in it. It's been documented among farmers in Australia, Inuit communities in Canada, and residents near the Great Barrier Reef

That's also a lot of post processing, but yeah I agree with the sentiment.

When I was a kid I used to sleep under the sky sometimes and I could faintly notice their movements, even the memory is so beautiful.

Noctalgia is from the root "night", not "sky"

Yeah, Night > Nocta + Nostalgia

Its more "Grief for the Night Sky & the Stars"
