- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).

I remember once in high school there was a super long and cool meteor shower at like 2 or 3 am. on a school night. My parents let me skip school the next day, and my friend stayed over, and we stayed up all night to see it. Core memory unlocked that night.
Did that unlock some kind of interest as well? Like astronomy or space or science in general or something else?
I really like astrophotography but I don't have the money to do it. At a minimum, I would need to buy a star tracker mount for my camera and then get stacking programs, but those pictures won't be very good. For a good setup for astro, you need a telescope, a mount to fit your camera on, and other stuff.
It did help me get into other types of photography like macro.
Cool ☺️ Pivotal event!
I respect your respect for astrophotography and I just wanted to say that you can still get some really amazing shots (albeit not super close-up). I've made a series of wonderful astrophotography time lapses with just my Sony mirrorless and a tripod and patience.
I'm sure you're probably aware but just wanted to say :)
