The one I really like is this one with a whole bunch of stars just covering the entire picture. It's just amazing because I never would've thought you could get such a awesome picture. The one with The Perseid Meteor Shower because it's nothing with a wow factor.
S.Quintanilla. Per 1
There is one photo I like that is a picture of the rings of Jupiter. The picture show some darkish red rings in a vast blackness of space. The date happens to be on my birthday as well.
J.Richardson P.1
The one I think is on my birthday and it is of a spaceship taking off. The flames are coming out of the back end of the spaceship and its still on the platform. It just looks cool because you don't always see pictures of a spaceship lifting off into space.

I like most of them because they are all colorful! I like all of them and was like wow someone can actually capture those they must love to take pictures! I love how it shows that movement! I don't really like how all of them are kinda similar and how they show the same thing just different colors! Well i couldn't use my birthday because they didnt have it so i went the next year and theres nothing really magical about it.
H. Cooper Per.1
some of these pictures are super colorful and that's awesome. But some of these pictures are also very dull, which is not so cool. The one on my birthday is kind of lame, its of the moon and has like a bird or something in the background.
c.brewer p.1
I like the one with the blue spiral galaxy gallery. It's a picture of a galaxy that I think is really cool looking. This was one of the only one's that I liked on the page of April 1996.
D, Riley P.1
The one I like is in March and it's very colorful. It's red and black and has stars everywhere. The one I don't like is The First 6 Billion Miles. I mostly like all the pictures though.
S. Matheson Period. 1
i like October 28th 1999. its of an x-ray jet. they don't have the year 1994 , so i just picked one. it looks cool, because of the random star-burning flame type look. I don't like October 28th 1995 , because it is just a rocket taking off. I don't know if i have a connection with my birthday, because they don't have it .
A.Johnson P.1
I like the one on March 5th, 1997 because its on my birthday. I think it looks cool because it is really sparkly and bright. It also has pink in it which makes it even better.
M. Orton 281102
I really like the photo from November 12, 2011 of a cosmo. The colors are amazing and it looks so beautiful. My least favorite picture is from November 21, 2009 because it is so edited that it almost looks fake.
K.Kolsut Period.1
The photo i like the most is the ones that have stars covering the whole photo. I've always personally had a love to watch the stars at night so i also love photos of them. These photos i found are on the birthday link under March, 1996.
K.Derschmidt P.1
I like the one of the sun. Its called the Dark Filament of the Sun. I think it looks cool because it has a pretty yellow in it. I don't really like the picture from my birthday.
-A. Haunschild Per. 1
the one i like the best is the one on January 16,1996. It is of stars. no the one on my birthday dose not have a mystical connection with me.
-S.McQuown period 1
The on I like is the photo from December 17th, 2009. This is a picture of a fireball meteor. It shows a bright meteor above a desert and I think this is cool because it almost looks fake because of how perfect and vibrant it is in the sky. i don't think that the one on my birthday is very special, it's just a picture of Mariner's Mercury and it is quite boring.
M.Christensen p.1
these pictures are amazing! i really like the one of the northern lights. they make the sky look green behind the trees.
I like the one of the Solar Corona Ejection. It was of the sun releasing gas that are like a solar flare but not as intense. I like how it looks like the sun is shooting beams or rays of hot sun gasses and other solar stuff.
M Silva P. 1
The one that I like the most is the picture of they sky just covered in stars. I like the way it looks because its a picture that is just stars nothing else.
A.Deeds P.1

t.hess p.1
I find them all pretty interesting, so I can't really choose what one I like. The one I probably don't like is the one May 14 the Ring Nebula because something just doesn't catch my eye. The one on my birthday just looks dead and dry, I don't really find a connection with it.
V. Smith P.1
One picture i really liked was the picture taken October 5, 2012. This picture really caught my eye because it is a picture taken from earth and could easily be seen with the naked eye. I really like how you could see all the different scenery such as the water, the rocks, the stars, the colors of outer space!
J.Rosales

I really like "water world" under November 1995. It's a really interesting picture of Alaska. I don't really know what it is about this, but it really just made me step back and go "Wow, that's the planet I live on." Pictures like the ones on this website are really enlightening!
AGonzalezP1
I like the pictures with the stars everywhere! it's my favorite! I also like the one with the northern lights, because it made the trees look cool!
E.Zitzelberger P.1
I like the picture on my birthday, April 30, 1997. It is a Milky Way molecule map. I think it's cool how starts form in gas clouds. The picture kind of looks like a heart beat.
A.Champ P.1.
I liked the one for March 1998, of the eclipse. I think it looks really cool. I think this picture wouldn't be that hard to take.
T.Fryett P.2
The photo i like the most is the one that has a bunch of stars covering the whole thing. I love looking at stars at night, i have always found them really interesting. The pictures i found are on the birthday link under March 1996.

I like the one on my birthday (Oct. 25 1995) its so colorful and pretty. It was cool i dont know about the mystical connection thing but its pretty coolio(:
A.Lindberg p.2
I like the one in july 1996. It is cool looking. It reminds me of an abstract picture.
A Sauceda Period:2
I liked the one on July 17th 1997. It was of some sort of computer alien things. It was colorful and robot-like. I think it looks cool because it looks different than all the other ones.
G. Williams P.2
I think the one on my birthday May 16 1997 is pretty cool. The colors are cool how they are all mixed together. Not what I thought that a black hole would look like.
K. Nagel P.2
The picture on my birthday is of the M81. This looks so cool because of the color and the shape. It's strange and beautiful at the same time/
K.Seibold P.2
My birthday is not on here. I was born in 1994. But i really like the picture with all the stars. There's so many of them!
My picture was on August 20th and it was of a meteor shower. It looks cool because you can see the the stars and meteors. I don't think it has any mystical connection with me.
A.boland P.2
I like the picture of the date of my birthday, its pretty sick. Its of like a star thats spread out, i guess? It looks cool because of the colors and it pulled me in. The picture on the date of my birthday has a mystical connection with ME because it reminds me of myself in a way. (:
M.Preston P.2
My birthday is not on here. I was born in 1994. But i really like the picture with all the stars. There's so many of them!
T.Beard Per.2
I like the pictures of the galaxies the most. It's cool because you can see the gasses swirl beautifully around stars.

My Birthday is in May and i really like the one with the rainbow comet. It is just very colorful but not to flashy. I don't like the one of Saturn being bright orange its just to much of one color and is personally kind of ugly.
K.Morello P.2
The photo i liked the most was of the x-ray sky. It's really colorful and cool to look at. The crescent earth didn't impress me, it's just a picture of a curved line.
C.Rankin
P.2
I like March 12 1996. I love the colors in it. The way they captured the colors is cool. I also like my birthday March 28 1996. It looks like a single bright star.
A.Herberger P.2
The diamond planet is a very interesting find. I have never heard of a planet being able to be made of diamonds. I kind of wonder what else some planets in the universe are like.
M McClure P 2
I like the picture of the Nebula Nova Cygni Turns On. I like the red and black looks really cool with shining stars mixed in. The picture on my birthday the 27th of December I think is a bad picture.
My birthday sadly wasn't on the site. So I picked the year I remember the best, and looked at the date. I was surprised to see that it was the turn of the century picture. I love that picture it is one of the most historic space picture to date I believe.

B. Ennis Period 2
I like the December 8, 1995 photo because it is my birthday. It is of a Gallileo rover in the sky. It has no mystical connection but I still like it.
The picture on the day I was born was actually very disappointing. It was grey and boring. I don't really like most of these photos. They are either like anamated or boring, But the ones that are colorful and pretty I like.
T.Tinker P.2
Yes It's one of a planet or Sun with spiraling arches and it looks so chaotic. And I like it because it's a lot like my life.
A.Thomson
P.2
I liked most of them. My least favorite were the ones that looked fake. Maybe they were.It fails to impress me because it looks digitally drawn.
M. Melhus
P.2
Yes I think the one of the full blue moon. It looks so cool because it is so crisp and clean and clear. the one on my birthday does not have any meaning to me!
A. sprague period 2
I don't think that i like any of the photos in the month of October. I think that the photos fail to impress me at all. i don't think that there is any mystical connection with me.
A.Willis P.2
Yes I like one of the Astronomy photo of the day. Its a whole bunch of different colors in it. The outside of the photo is a blur and in the middle it is blue and then pink.
M Cordill. Per 3
Yes. It is of our universe. I like the bright colors and the patterns.
S.Snyder P.3
My favorite space photo is the last Saturday of the month. This is the picture of the Lagoon Nebula. It can be seen without a telescope because it is so bright and big. I like the colors of it. No mystical connection but they are cool to look at.

My birthday is in october and since its only the second week, there arent very many pictures. The one I really like is Pan-STARRS and Nebulae. It is really pretty and shows so much about what is above earth. But I dont really feel any mystical connection to the space pictures.
R. Drake Period 3
I like the photo they took on May 8 1997. It is of a comet going through space and its tail is glowing white. Its cool because it looks like it is forcing itself through water and the bubbles and water are moving around it.
B. Leonetti Per 3
i like the photo of the sun. because you can see the fire and everything around it. it does not have a mystical connection with me but its still cool.
B.Nowland P.3
The one I like is of all the stars covering the entire picture. The picture on my birthday is of Jupiter's moon. I dont really like it because there isn't much of a wow factor to it.
B. Comiskey P.3
I honestly don't really like any of them. They fail to impress me because they are all sorta ugly. The one on my birthday is kinda ugly.
E.Wymore Period 3
my favorite ones to look at are the older ones. The ones back in October, 1995 are interesting. Some are not very interesting but coool to look at
T.Munoz per.3
2000 December 21 is my favorite one.
Its of an orange moon that is curved in. But December 1st is my birthday so my favorite one is 2008 for December 1st.
L.Katzberg Period 3
I think that these pictures are actually really unique! I think that the pin the first or second month it is blue and looks like an explosion. I think the tyne poink and purple colors in there were really cooooool.
K.Polkk Period 3
My birthday is june of 95. My favorite picture is of the cats eye nebula. I think its really cool because inside of the nebula is all red, and the outside is green.
B.Little Per. 3
I like the photo taken on October 10th, 2011. I like this image because 1) the colors in the picture, 2) I love sunrises, 3) It looks like an explosion, 4) It was taken on my birthday!
J. Gallagher Per.3
my favorite one was a picture of a comet flying down. Its white like snow big like and fast like a car. its cool. I like all of them. yes everything related to my birthday is like connected to me.
D.Podloujnyi Per.3
i like the photo of the space shuttle looking down at earth. the shuttle is blowing out some kind of a gas and it looks like steam over boiling water, but upside down. the photo is from january 1 1996.
J.benjamin P.3
There are a couple of them that are pretty cool and that draw my attention. The one of my birthday is actually pretty boring. I honestly think it's really boring.
S.Orozco P.3
I like November 1st 2005 picture.It is a sadalight with the Earth half way in the picture. It looks cool because how the Earth is in the picture.
D Guisinger

I like the photo on November 6th, 1995. It's a picture of a star(s) that form pillars. The color really caught my eye and it's intriguing to look at.
E. Angier P.3
I like the one on May 8, 1997 its like a fire ball in space. It also looks cool because its really bright, and it sticks out. There was non on my birth day of when i was born so i did this one.
A.Stumbaugh P.3
These pictures are pretty interesting of space. Its unbelievable how many, and how big all these galaxies are. Its almost unreal. I dont understand how some of these pictures are even taken.
K.Kruger Per.3
Yes. The one I like is of the Trifid Nebula. I looks really cool cause its like an abstract picture.
S. Jost Per 3
