Introduce yourself! (And show us your swag)

[Topplan]

Hi all

My name is Rod, I am an Australian and live in New Zealand. I have a fascination for our heavens and the intricacies it hold. I have been interested in astronomy since I was a teenager and was shown Saturn through a church friend's telescope. I have never forgotten its beauty in all the years since and would love to have the chance to see it through my own scope. That would allow me to share this experience with my grandchildren.

Heeeeeey

Tomas here! Just discovered this community and I love it!

Outer space has always gravitationally attracted me as Jupiter would do on planet Earth & co, but what really excites me is the use of space borne data to enhance our defense and security.. I am currently writing a dissertation on synergies and loopholes of a potential European Space Defence Policy.. an idea truly thrills me

This community is certainly an asset for my work too.. so many updated and terrific info about our solar system and beyond! Love it

Zephaniah Chesterfield. I'm a cartoon clown, or that's the common perception. Reluctant frontman of a band which barhops and gigs through what is known and unknown (but nothing is unknown, only unrecognized or "not clearly defined", which I say because everything has an expression and in most cases a word) and on an inevitable path to the point where thinking, understanding, and believing settle at their root point of knowing and being. That's just me being honest to a degree. I guess my space swag would be my presence. lmao.

Hi everybody,
I am Yalcin , Medical Doctor specialized in Urology and working in a research and training hospital in Adana district of Türkiye.
I am interested in astronomy since childhood.. Now, since a decade , could spare time for astronomy after a hard working period in my profession.
Besides reading and following up-to date e-news of various facilities I 've been subscribed , I enjoy astrophotography in terms of DSO and wide field skyscape , whenever I find a clear sky and time. I own a 10 in Newtonian reflector and a 3.5 in refractor on a German equatorial mount, however I 've limited my camera choice only by DSLR . I share my photos in Astrobin and Astronomy Forums, Telescopium..
Thanks for your reading

Hi everyone! I'm Christina and I work for KFC as Lead Prep and team trainer for new hires-for now. Since I was a little girl, I was always told I had my head in space...news flash! I wanted to be a NASA Astronaut to be one of the firsts to man a mission to Mars. Life happens and you can get derailed, so you adjust right? I love being outside at night on a cloudless, moonless night to stargaze in the middle of nowhere outside of Ithaca, NY. I'm waiting for someone to figure out how to utilize heavy water as not only a source of power but also as a shield against radiation. So here I am looking for like-minded people to become friends with and talk about space. Apparently in my family wanting to go to space makes me odd!? Aside from a few people I'm a person who prefers the company of animals.
