Hi freeroaming, welcome to the BAUT forum.
Are you interested in astronomy or spaceflight?

Hi everyone,

My name is Freek van der Hulst. I'm 12 years old (born in 1993) and I go to school in Eindhoven, The Netherlands. Which is incidentally where I also live.

I interest myself more than 3 years already in astronomy and the universe. Previous year I have built my own website, www.AstroVersum.nl. Since a couple days I have been active on this board, BAUT.

Welcome, Freek. I hope you enjoy your time on the BAUT forum. Our administrators and moderators work hard to make this a place that's friendly to young people like you.

Congratulations on your English skills. I wish I spoke a second language as well as you do.

Hello Freek,

You should by now have figured out that the "Junior Member" under your name is not because of your age but because you haven't posted a lot yet.
It'll go away soon.

Welcome freeroaming. We are a friendly bunch. I am guessing "your country" refers to the United States, but there are actually members all over the world, and not just native speakers of English. Hopefully you will learn alot about customs all of the world.

Hi everyone,

I'm Peter, 21, I come from a wonderful country called Poland. First of all, I'd like to ask you all one thing, or two things:
Is this a government run website? Do you get paid by NASA to hide the Truth? Oh, and one more thing, do you like spaghetti westerns? (cause I love them).

I made joke of course. This forum is great, I have no words to describe that. You people have all needed knowledge and experience to debunk all that utter rubbish (bad astronomy, false prophecies and so on) that is floating the Internet. And I can tell you that here in Poland we have tons of that, also thousands of helpless people to believe in it.

I'm not an astronomer, nor a scientist, just an economies student, but I've recently become quite interested in space and such. I must say that after reading too much Daniken as a child I got a wrong and unhealthy idea of our universe and humankind (despite I'm religious). That's why now I want to learn from real scientists and wise and rational people. Well, it's just one of the reasons of course. Anyway, greetings.
By the way, I believe that you all are ETs and want to pull the wool over my eyes

Hi Peter, and welcome to the BAUT. There's really a country called Poland? Well, learn something new every day.

Hello. I've been lurking here for over two years and thought it time I (cautiously)
join in. Space science has been a lifelong passion. I worked in the beginnings of the
space program for three years just prior to the first manned flights, but have limited
math skills. I will attempt to seriously contribute here, but with an occasional
sprinkling of my wacky sense of humor.

My screen name is Luckmeister -- it's an anagram of my real name. If you can guess
it (no cheating by using an anagram generator), I might let you look through the
special 4D glasses I'm wearing in my avatar. Caution -- objects may appear through the
glasses before or after your time frame.

Luckmeister

Welcome, Hannah! What a nice name! How are your sisters?

Congrats on your astrophysical goals. I wish you success.

Re such topics as religion and politics, please check out these rules:

Have fun!

mike something?

Maybe, but there are other first name candidates.

One anagram I rejected as a screen name was "Emetic Lurks". That would translate to "reading other's posts induces vomiting" which would be a bit insulting (though sometimes apt).

There are a couple of others I considered -- Cruel Kismet and Mule Sticker (um, no -- I don't think so).

BTW, GREAT Shuttle launch today. They're doing a post-launch press conference right now.

Keep guessing,

Luckmeister

Hi Peter, and welcome. Wasn´t your town supposed to be called Gdansk?
