The growth of this community continues to amaze me. We've made this the place for the most premier Space-related-beauty on Lemmy and continue to bring in new user's at a huge pace. There's a continued increase in user contribution as well and it's great seeing the different celestial objects or image types that different users prefer.

Please continue to post and comment so we can continue to make this an exciting and welcoming community.

Also, if you're new here, know that this is a friendly place that you should feel comfortable joining. Please remember to share your suggestions, we want this community to be active and reflect what the user's want it to be.

If you have any suggestions for things that you would like to see, or just want to stop by and say what your favorite type of celestial object is, let us know.

Thanks and continue being awesome.

Hello! Please continue being awesome. Spaceporn gives me perspective on my puny little problems. (That arrow on the Earth from Saturn pic, lol.)

[–] Venutianxspring@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah that one really makes you think about how insignificant things here are in the grand scheme of things.

[–] athiest_bicycles@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

me, stepping over my shadow: Hello!

[–] angrylittlekitty@lemmy.one 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

former redditor who belonged to many sfw "porn" inage forums but never one like this. beautiful way to populate my feed - thank you all for your contributions and fine conversation ❤️

[–] Venutianxspring@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Glad to have you. I used to follow a bunch on Reddit too, waiting to find a good earthporn one here still

[–] Motavader@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hi all! I love images of crazy cool galaxies that are so far away I couldn't reach them in my lifetime even travelling at the speed of light. 😁

[–] Venutianxspring@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Those are my favorite as well. Something about seeing the deep field images and knowing every dot is a whole other massive galaxy, full of planets and possibilities just excites my imagination.

[–] Ikarus@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

Lurker here that loves space :)

Serial lurker, even on Reddit. But trying to be more involved with Lemmy.

[–] Unpopular4810@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Yep same for me. Looove the space pics!!!

[–] Skuldug@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I can only hope that one of my favorite reddit users has come over to this new space. I always knew I was in for some good and well explained info when the post started 'Astronomer here!'.

[–] electrogamerman@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Hello from mars. (Dont tell the NASA)

[–] Varixable@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Lurker who likes looking at neat pictures of/from space checking in.
