For an image subreddit with minimal rules, check out /r/images

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  6. No animated images. Please submit them to /r/gif, /r/gifs, or /r/reactiongifs instead.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

I feel the exact same way. I just wish I could be alive to experience all the wonders our future holds for us in the universe.

chances are we wont and by the time we CAN the universe will have expanded beyond what we can even see and we'll all be dead anyway.

Have fun sleeping :L)

you never know. maybe some aliens will visit because they want to make a hyperspace bypass next to earth.

That's not a "visit," that's a demolition crew.

Transhumanism, my friend. If we do away with death then there will be no limits on where we may go.

Though to be a bit pessimistic, we probably won't be able to go that distance. But perhaps our children or grandchildren will. Or... great grandchildren.

Or maybe we will all be killed by a giant meteor.

The problem is that we are limited by the speed of light, and with the speed of expansion of the universe, I put even trans-human exploration of really anything much beyond our local galaxy much beyond likelihood.

Whenever I see this re-post I'm disappointed that chances are we won't be able to find out what's out there in our lifetime.
