This is the best weather report I’ve seen for ages. Exciting, informative, and with a chance of snow over the weekend.
-
This evening: Prof Steve Blundell on the first 101 years of superconductivity…including a flying train! 20:15, Clarendon lab.
-
@bangscience You may enjoy this (inspired by a Domestic Science from Bang! issue 3!).
-
@declanfleming Cheers!
-
@JamieBGall Cheers! It’s actually my FameLab first round talk, videoified. I blame the effects for the extra minute…
-
@leilabattison @JamieBGall Agreed, there should definitely be more of this. I have loads of video editing to do right now, but once that’s over…
-
@JamieBGall @leilabattison I am rapidly coming to the conclusion that I am not the first person to have had this idea. :)
-
@leilabattison Thanks! Let me know if you have any other ideas which need scooping! ;) (Seriously tho: good video demo ideas, let me know…)
-
Videos! About science! See the first of my mini-series as Lab, Camera, Action! on the Oxford Physics website.
-
@samuelpilgrim Thanks! :) I used Araldite and a filter adapter ring thing: full instructions here…
-
This is enjoyably provocative…and the logic doesn’t just apply to space exploration. How much is an astronaut’s life worth?
-
Another article about BBC science from Leila Battison following on from yesterday’s by Martin Robbins.
-
Science on the telly: Martin Robbins is a very angry man. But perhaps we should be very angry?
-
@CameronNeylon @imrankhan Any reason why post-publication peer review can’t be anonymous?
-
Stargazing Oxford: incredible. Over 1,100 visitors, hundreds of spectrometers made, and then some impromptu telescope fun afterwards. Now: bed.
-
I know you’re all already en route to the science-tastic Stargazing Oxford, 14:00–22:00 today in the Physics Department.
-
Oxford people: I need cereal boxes! Get them to me before Saturday, or bring them to Stargazing Oxford. Please!
-
Finally getting round to naming my soon-to-be-made series of short science videos: what do people think of Lab, Camera, Action!…?
-
Oxford astrophysicist found dead: tabloids in circling vultures shocker.
-
What a depressing media landscape in which this even needs to be asked.
