I just joined this community last night, and I'm just curious about some of the people here. I'm only 19 years old, but I'm more interested in all things space than anyone I've ever met. Just out of curiosity, what are people's ages in this forum?

I actually vaguely remember watching a lunar landing as a 8-10 year old kid, but I can't be sure if it was the first landing. In high school I was right on top of the Viking landings, writing to NASA for photos and waiting 2 months to finally get the 8 x 10s. And then there was Pioneer -- remember the little craft before Voyager that kept on going and going and going? Astronomy, Sky & Telescope magazines were the sources back then (I still have a lot of those issues), plus NASA directly and certain companies that released slides of the mission photos (still have those somewhere as well).
We've come a long way, baby! -------------------- |
