Dear Fans of the Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD) ,

If the US Government shutdown affects APOD's main NASA site at http://apod.nasa.gov/, many of APOD's mirror sites will still be updated and operational during this shutdown. A list of these sites can be found here:

For example, the daily APOD should remain viewable from the APOD's mirror at the University College London (UK) during the US government shutdown:

Another example is APOD's main Facebook site which is expected to remain up and updated during the shutdown:

We apologize for any inconvenience, and appreciate your understanding.
