We really love to get your email messages. We really appreciate your kind words and feedback, so if you want to drop us an email, go ahead. We do get a mountain of email every day, and try to respond to all of it. But if you're looking for an answer right away, there might be some other avenues you should try first.

If you have a question about space and astronomy

Drop by the

Cosmoquest Forum

and ask your question. There are thousands of astronomy enthusiasts there, including specialists in many disciplines. They're super smart, and on the site all hours of the day. In fact, we've got a

special section

just for people to post their questions. Check it out.

If you want us to report your news

We're always looking for news to report; however, we generally focus on stories that come from space agencies, science journals and university research groups. We honestly don't have the science knowledge to properly review new research. If you've got a new discovery about the universe, or want to announce your findings, we suggest that you get it published through an accredited science journal first.

You can also post your ideas to the

Against the Mainstream

section of the forum and get feedback right away. You'll get some great responses.

If you still think you've got something newsworthy to report, or think there's a cool story we should cover, drop us an email at
