How does one prevent the console from going blank?

I have a console that after a few minutes goes blank. I'd rather have it so that I can see what is happening on the console. How can I prevent it from blanking?

So far I've searched the man pages (man stty, man sysctl, man -k blank, man -k console, etc.) but haven't found anything obvious. This is not X, just a plain text console.

Been googling, too, but obviously not with the right search terms. Any pointers appreciated.
