The Star Spot is a nonprofit, volunteer-run organization. We operate with lots of love and a passion for astronomy, but that doesn’t quite cover all of our needs all of the time. Costs from web hosting, recording space, speaker fees, conference coverage and printing flyers, posters, business cards and the like do add up.

Patreon is a simple way that fans of the show can contribute to the podcast every month and get some great rewards in return. If you’d like to see us continue to grow and continue to put out great content please consider helping us out. Our annual expenses total at about $10,000, and every little bit helps.

If you’d like to know exactly where your money is going, ask us, and we’ll be glad to share the information. Alternatively, get involved with The Star Spot and have a say in it yourself!

Clear Skies,
The Star Spot Team
