After feedback from regular readers, I've decided to create the IceInSpace Community Forums - a place where amateur astronomers and anyone else interested in astronomy and space, can get together to discuss news stories, ask others for advice or just generally chat about space, astronomy and everything else.

Please take the time to register for the forums, it'll only take a minute, and then you'll be able to say g'day and take part in the discussions!

With your support, these forums could potentially become a hub for local amateurs and other interested people from all over Australia - a community resource site that is sorely missing from Australian astro websites.

You can access the forums by the menu on the left, or by clicking the "Comments" link after each news story. Hope to see you posting!
