Starship Asterisk*

My computer's home page since I first found APOD in 2006. I've got no plans to change that as it's a constant source of wonder.
Well done to Robert and Jerry for your consistent ability to open my eyes to something new (to me) and wonderous.
Every now and then one of my children will come and sit on my knee and see the APOD page for the day and say Wow! Dad, what's that? Then the learning begins...
Happy birthday APOD!

I have only recently discovered APOD thanks to Professor Brian Cox and his passion for space. It graces my desktop each day and is a constant source of wonder and joy.

Thank you so much. I have been a follower for many of your 15 years, and use APOD as my home screen for internet access. Hence, I have seen them all, and by careful selection, I have emmassed an incredible set of awsome photographs which I use as my screensaver. My mind is continually refreshed as is my screen. You have added emensely to my life!

Congratulations APOD team!
For constantly providing inspiration to, and keeping a tight bond between all amateur and professional astronomers around the world.
Personally I've been following the site ever since 2000-2001, but I made sure to download all the archive a few years ago (maybe now would be a good time to update it ).
And it's not all about "pretty pictures". There's much more scientifically valuable information connected to the images, links to comprehensive explanation wherever needed and on top of it all, the desire to share with everyone interested the latest discoveries in the field.
For all this i send you a big "THANK YOU!" and may it reach its 150-th anniversary

…all I need is the air that I breathe & APOD!
Thank you Robert and Jerry for making it possible
to dance with the stars everyday.

Long-life wishes (ku tsering!) from one whose name means
'Sun', Nyima. ~'~

CONGRATULATIONS to APOD on its 15th year. The picture is pretty awesome too.
I only miss visiting the site daily when I'm away from home, and hope to continue doing so for many years to come.
Keep up the good work. Please.

Huzzah three times three! May you chronicle another hundred years of this Golden Age of discovery!

Thankyou for the daily dose of marvel. At least once a week my mouth drops & hangs there; there is nothing to do but gape in amazement at our incredible universe. Thanks, thanks, thanks.

images ... They are there! APOD two years I've known ... and many more. Greetings.

I follow APOD EVERY SINGLE MORNING and it always makes my day! Some days even more than others!!! Happy Birthday to you all and keep up the splendid work! Warm regards from Greece.

Thank you for a daily inspiration and thought provoker. Your work is a sheer delight.

Happy birthday to APOD and a special thanks for providing such stunning images. It is one of the first things I open after checking my emails - it is required viewing to see what wonder is on show each day.

That collage is just simple awesome - I have picked out several images so far that I recognise - I need to zoom in more to find other images.

I have seen several pictures made up in a similar way but this one is just stunning.

APOD has been required viewing for about 5 years now and they never cease to amaze me.

Well done to the guys for providing this service - you are stars!!!! Keep up the good work - I envy you getting to see all that beauty in the cosmos.
