Rules
1. Just be a good person, I will be sad if I have to elaborate
2. Stay on topic
Posts should be related to Titan Observatory, astronomy, RF, or a closely related subject.
3. Keep claims grounded
Speculation is allowed when clearly labeled, but do not present misinformation, pseudoscience, conspiracy theories, or unsupported technical/scientific claims as fact.
4. Add context when sharing links
Direct links should include a short explanation of why they are relevant. Link-only posts may be removed if they do not start a useful discussion.
5. No unrelated self-promotion or spam
Relevant projects, tools, articles, and resources are welcome when shared with context.
6. Use clear titles
Post titles should describe what the post is actually about. Avoid clickbait, vague titles, or self-deprecating “dumb question” framing. Beginner questions are fine.
7. Moderator discretion applies
Posts or comments may be removed if they violate the rules, Reddit’s sitewide policies, or the general purpose of the community.
Thanks for being here and helping make radio astronomy more accessible!
