What I have never understood is:
1. Why does nobody go after the websites that are promoting themselves via spam? Spaming is illegal and these websites should be closed down immediately.
Guess many have their servers in some 3rd world (when it comes to this stuff) country like russia.
2. Those "super" hackers that spend their time hacking harmless sites, could maybe put their talents to good use and go after spammer websites.

Due to a persistent denial of service attack, astronautix.com has been taken off line.

Thank you for your support over the last 17 years. I'll have to consider in what altered media, form, or other hosting arrangement the content of this site may reappear in the future.

Why don't you move the site to an Amazon AWS instance? You'd get their DDOS protection with it, and it probably won't cost more than $80 a month...maybe less if you bid for the time.
