Hello, dear STEEM community,
with this post, I would like to tell you a little bit about @ASTROSteem.
@ASTROSteem is a human controlled upvote and resteem curation project that is looking for great and valuable astronomical content on the STEEM blockchain.
The development of @ASTROSteem
@ASTROSteem was founded by me, 
I've already written some articles in @SteemSTEM and always thought that something similar would be great, that only astronomy relevant topics would be considered. It should not only be about the scientific contributions, but it should also simply consider the astrophotography or other non-scientific articles.
What do we want to achieve with @ASTROSteem?
As I noticed quite early on steemit, there are excellent contributions, which unfortunately get lost in the mass. I want to support their authors with @ASTROSteem, more than I could do with my
What content are we looking for?
It's very simple: It just has to do with Astronomy. Be it a scientific article, a drawing of last night's observations, impressive astrophotographs or tutorials or "How does that work" articles.
Unfortunately, I am only a single person until now, and I also have a life next to STEEM so it may happen that I won't see all contributions. But I will browse the different tags in search of good articles. Also, I will only consider articles which are your own content and where all image sources are listed and linked.
Why all this?
As an astrophotographer, I am very dependent on the weather and the phases of the Moon. That forces me to make often very long breaks, in which I, unfortunately, cannot participate properly in this exciting hobby. I want to fill this time with reading and curating valuable content from other authors. Also, I would like to strengthen the STEEM blockchain and the authors in this topic area.
I like that, how can I participate?
Without good content, there is also not what we can support. Therefore the most important thing is to write good articles.
