It's difficult to fit several posts within the Steam Announcement character limit, so I'll try to make a habit of posting excerpts here with links to the full posts. You can also access these posts via Starbound's launcher!
15th October - Do the Monster Mash

If you’re in the area, stop by and participate in Operation Colonisation and you’ll get a super cool penguin sticker. :D
Time to reveal some more monsters! Meet Squeem, Crabcano, and Smoglin!
