MESSAGE FROM THE ADMINS
**********************************

Hey everyone, weve noticed some acrimony happening in the comments section. Specifically, arguments are erupting over the validity of stacked and enhanced photos.

This is not strictly a scientific website. People enjoy seeing enhanced images. Cometary gas is a most beautiful color. As an artist, I can relate to the attraction of the images.

Surely this community is not a typical hive of snarky internet comments. Lets not let it become one. Lets strive to behave like the mature, thoughtful human beings that we are.

No personal attacks, please. If you have issue with a submission, then make your point politely, and LET IT BE. And if someone says something thats out of line, then please resist the natural urge to fire back.

As a a reminder, you can downvote comments which you feel are not constructive. If a comment receives a nominal number of downvotes, then it will be purged.

Thanks!!
