Hey, great selection!

I did want to point out though that it was the 40th anniversary of the moon landing, not the 50th.

Cheers!

Great collection. Correction on the anniversary number. It should be the 40th anniversary (landing was in 1969) not the 50th. Good stuff though!

If space is so beautiful I would prefer staying on a satellite…I was always fascinated by celestial bodies and this list is one of the best I have come across so far…Though it is very difficult to choose the best from these, I would rate Omicron Beta, Last Dawn, Allurement, Cosmic Sunrise and Remnants as my top five…..Special mention for Allurement and Last Dawn, both are exceptional and hats of to the talent behind them….
