Astronomy

As they returned to the airlock, the Earth below started to put on a lightning show, and Ayers took note, mesmerized. A day later, she picked up a camera and captured some additional lightning strikes, saying, "I am so amazed by the view we have up here of our Earth’s weather systems." I've chosen my favorite of these photos for today's post.

So I've been posting space related stuff here for a while over !space@lemmy.world to distribute content more, within the last few weeks though it was closed and now directs posting to this other mander space comm !space@mander.xyz which is titled "Space & Astronomy"

So now I'm wondering what the differences are? What kind of content should go to !astronomy@mander.xyz over !space@mander.xyz and vice versa?
