I really like how you tied in your passion of astronomy into your paper and how you said that since many people have some sort of interest in space that the article would appeal to almost anyone. I also found it very interesting that you pointed out that this type of article of the earth possibly being destroyed can be a type of “break” and more pleasing to read than politics. Honestly, that made me laugh when I read that part of your paper because it is so true. Kind of makes it seem like astronomy articles and magazines about celebrities are similar in that way. When talking about the audience you stated that it was a little more directed towards those with computers which I had never really thought about before. Overall, I thought your paper had some compelling points in it which now make me think of any type of scientific article in a new light.
I really like how you immediately described the conventions of an astronomy article. Such as having a "catchy title to draw in readers" and the format being very academic; though, the writing would have been more convincing if your description was more in depth. Rather than just describing generic conventions of any kind of article, you could have said whether or not astronomy articles include a lot of statistics or theories. Though, what is really evident in your piece is your love for astronomy. One, because you clearly state it in your piece and, two, because you write about astronomy with a lot of passion.
