      Please don't change anything. To be honest, I only recently discovered your channel. I think it has been about a year now. It showed up whilst I was devouring astrophysics content. So, this is also the first time I see your face. Which is a bit weird, as my imagination had developed a different face. It is quite an intriguing experience, to see for the first time someone that the mind relates to almost like if it was a long time friend.
      So, nice to meet you, face. I really love your voice.
      And I love the pace of your content. And I think that's part of the soul of its soul. Let's kick this algorithm to the curb.

You planted a seed in her that had a thirst for space knowledge, we both have enjoyed your channel and videos for a long long time now, and hope to continue to see amazing content and learn so much from you.

Not that there's anything wrong with creators getting paid; to the contrary - they just have a mechanism set up so that they benefit, and greatly. It's a shame the "pay me elsewhere" concept wasn't a thing before the corporate money grabbing behavior started. Things may be different now. But as a result of how it has unfolded, derpiness gets rewarded while hard work gets pushed to the side.

    We all learned so much from Mr. Sagan.
    He was one of the most intelligent men to walk this earth.
    The content in his TV program was outstanding.
    Another big part of Carl Sagan's presence on TV was his distinct voice, his mannerisms, and his unique way that he articulated himself.
    You have a unique voice and a particular way of pronunciation with certain words.
    Never change that.
    It's your trademark.

      They usually will not pay very well.

      4. There is nothing wrong with him getting paid for performing his job.

    I really appreciate the topics you delve into, the well-considered pacing you employ in doing so, and the fact that you're not afraid to make longer videos that explore topics more deeply. That is indeed a rarity in the YT world. Which brings me to another point. I think having a Patreon presence for Astrum is a wonderful idea, as it will allow those of us who can, support your work to whatever extent each of us can. That said, for those who would like to see ad-free videos, one option might be to ditch the YT platform entirely and head to greener (i.e. less restrictive) pastures, such as Rumble or Oddysee. I realise there are still many good reasons for content providers to post on YT, but I think having a long-term alternative on the back burner might be prudent.

    You're the main reason why I got so interested in astronomy in the first place. I wasn't even 8 years old when I first started watching your videos, and yet they were always so profound, and left me in awe about the universe, constantly wanting to learn more. I can't thank you enough for sparking a life-long interest in astronomy for me.

    ASTRUM is, for me, a solid, rich, engaging channel. So many times, I've longed to escape from the shallow and depleating torrent of videos that are so prevalent on CZcams.
    I particularly enjoy how you present and narrate each video. Calm, intelligent, and captivating - really easy to take in.
    I've learned so much from ASTRUM. It has given answers to wonder, and I THANK YOU so much!
    Please continue the excellent work, and I look forward to being a patron.
    Cheers

    Of all the space related channels I watch, your and Dr David Kipping has the best narration out there. I'm quite sensitive to sound when going to sleep, so I never sleep through your videos, but they are so relaxing and fascinating I never skip an opportunity to watch or listen while I have crawled to bed. Do what you need to to keep on doing what you love. We love your work too!

    1.9 million subs is a huge success for this type of platform. I understand there is a thirst for more, but this style will win in the long run. Informative, smooth and clean language. It will have a Bob Ross, Larry Haun type of staying power. Stick with this format and between upcoming SpaceX and Artemis missions, you guys are in prime position for a second wind of followers.

The pace, depth of information and your narration are a joy in this time of shallow content, click-bait titles and dreadful AI narration. As soon as I get over a total bank account hack, I will be joining your patreon channel.
    Thank you for your personally explaining the change you are making to be able to keep a great channel going.

    ❤ I love your voice and fantastic content. I'm a 70yo now (and in poor health) but your channel helps me continue to learn about space, a subject which has been a favourite of mine since I was a small child, before my family even had a television...!!
    Books and radio drew me, TV, and later the internet, only made it easier.
    Astrum _is_ the :icing on the cake' as it so easily explains sometimes quite complicated matters etc.
    Sadly, I have, unfortunately _no_ bank accounts, so have no way to donate to you (or any other) channel's Patreon, or via the CZcams 'Thank-You' device, so am sorry I cannot join in to help financially...😢
    I hope to still be able to watch and learn from your videos, as I have up to now.
    Thank you for all of your endeavours and dedication.
    And, thank you for wanting to clarify your decision to extend your financial intake, so that you and your splendid team can continue to educate, entertain and enhance our lives as avid viewers of Astrum.❤🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🙂🇬🇧🖖

    Astrum, I just want to thank you for all your work. I watch these videos all the time on repeat. They are especially fun when I'm playing Star Trek Online. Your supercut of the Opportunity Rover brings a tear to my eye every time; I'm a grown man and that f******* robot makes me cry. Thank you for all your work. If I ever do decide to finally bite the bullet and start donating to Patreon, Astrum and Forgotten Weapons will be top of the list (for different/same reasons. I love history and I love exploration).
