Also that's right.

Thanks!

There is a mistype on the link of Credit "Tamas Ladanyi":

The wrong target is: http://http//www.twanight.org/ladanyi

The right one is: http://www.twanight.org/newTWAN/photogr ... %20Ladanyi

Finally the Catalan APOD mirror Facebook page has its own URL: http://www.facebook.com/apodcatala

Just I case, despite APOD editors had been warned, take care about the link on “geocentric”.

There is a mistype: the wrong target is “ap0904171.html” and the right one is “ap090417.html”.

Was Tycho Brahe murdered? http://www.aolnews.com/2010/11/15/scientists-exhume-remains-to-learn-if-astronomer-was-murdered/ Brahe's death has long been attributed to a bladder infection contracted after his bladder ruptured during a royal banquet where politeness and convention kept him from leaving...

Internal links The APOD web site internal title more linked ( 178 times ) is “Fractal Interstellar Dust Up-Close” , available on: http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap030706.html http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap990509.html http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap980104.html http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/...

The link of “Northern Coal Sack” doesn’t have any target:

<a href="">Northern Coal Sack</a>

Possibly the right one might be APOD October 23, 2003, “Cygnus Nebulosities”.

There is an error on the link of "first decade".

Is - http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/stati ... g/10years.


Could to be - http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/stati ... years.html

I have doubts but...

Statistics can't tell you the whole story and may in fact be misleading. I’m absolutely agreed with the first part of your statement. Furthermore: statistics never tells the whole story. Buy they only may be misleading if are taken as more than a trend; just a clue to begin understanding a phenomen...

Within the global trend in which the users don’t click the links, there is a special kind. I name it “abstracts”, despite these links are not abstracts in every instance. Some examples are: http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1972ApJ...178..623T http://adsabs.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/nph-bib_query?bibcode=1998...

With some minor trouble and the valuable help from bystander, it’s running the Facebook page from Catalan APOD mirror.

Because it still doesn’t have URL, you can found it on Facebook searching “Imatge Astronòmica del Dia (APOD)”

Statistics about - APOD reader’s behavior - analysis systems (Google Analytics, Alexa, server tracking…) - curiosities And any topic related with APOD statistics. If you are an APOD mirror site operator and you want to share your data, that’s the place. (Some data are only based on Catalan APOD mirr...

The title reminds a classic sci-fi movie: "It Came from Outer Space" (1953).

If do you like it, could be funny to include a link on the explanation like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ErFsW4-FDWw

Hello,


There you are another opinion about this topic.

Bye,

There is an interesting video about Gliese 581g, released from NASA-TV, which you can link from explanation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqhkfIrJ_Ic .

Right now the new Spitzer Space Telescope web site- http://www.spitzer.caltech.edu/ is running again.

Hello, There is still a problem with the new, and still beta, Spitzer Space Telescope web site (http://www.spitzer.caltech.edu/). As a suggestion, you can use the following alternate links’ target: “Spitzer Space Telescope” - http://legacy.spitzer.caltech.edu/index.shtml “known as coreshine” - http:...

Hi,

From a year ago I have in mind a Facebook group of APOD Catalan mirror, but I have a couple of doubts/questions:

Is there any copyright problem, especially on non English APOD mirrors?

Is the word “official” suitable to an APOD mirror?

Thanks.

Fine.
Thanks!

Hello, On from http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/fap/ap100929.html, the link from "nerve of steel" returns the message “Image has expired, sorry. Please visit pixdaus.com and get new link” - http://pixdaus.com/pixdaus.png. From my Catalan version draw still shows the right image: http://pix...

APOD uses the meta-tag “keywords”, as well some mirror sites, mainly those in English. Google itself claims that its searcher practically ignores the meta "keywords". Please, take a look to these videos from “Google Webmaster Help”: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jK7IPbnmvVU http://www.you...

I deleted my post because I realized that its content was copyrighted and, as bystander said, the image must be from APOD.

May bad.
