@_astrofaith I just arrived in Leeds for UKEXOM looking forward to your talk on Thursday 🤓🤙🏻

@_astrofaith Thank you so much 🙏🏼

I got the PhD offer I wanted!!

@ProfBrianCox "It is our responsibility as scientists, knowing the great progress which comes from a satisfactory philosophy of ignorance, the great progress which is the fruit of freedom of thought, to proclaim the value of this freedom; to teach how doubt is not to be feared but welcomed..."

@ProfBrianCox "If we suppress all discussion, all criticism, proclaiming “This is the answer, my friends; man is saved!” we will doom humanity for a long time to the chains of authority, confined to the limits of our present imagination. It has been done so many times before." Feynman

I’m currently writing a book, and as always it’s making me aware of what I thought I understood, but actually don’t understand, about physics. And I must say I’m cooling slightly on the Many Worlds Interpretation of quantum mechanics - at least the way it’s usually presented in words.

@SpacePadreIsle 2 weeks... ;p

I just supported @exo_cast with $12 on @buymeacoffee! 🎉 You can support them here — buymeacoffee.com/exocast

@Rainmaker1973 Sow us the other side

A traditional brain teaser: how many holes?

@_astrofaith Sy Andrews uni! 🎉

@Astro__Surf Huge congrats!!!!!! Where will you be working?? Let me know if you ever wanna have a chat about PhD things 😁😁

@ellieinspace When can we see!? What was the question?

Me about to faint asking a question at a NASA press conference lol wtf nerves !

Incredible work 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I’d like to reemphasize this. The dust you see is not settling. It is still going uphill when it flies over the horizon and out of view. It is like a rocket that has curved below the horizon but is still climbing. If you get this, it makes sense why it clears the view so fast. /1

@ellieinspace You need to try it on pizza with a chilli oil dressing 🤌

I absolutely abhor goat cheese… I’m sorry, I can’t get into it. That is all.

This is a real photo captured through my telescope of the moon. Completely unedited/unprocessed. See anything strange?

@gunsnrosesgirl3 @BabaMc777 @Rainmaker1973 Maybe if you stop ranting about him ranting about you then we can get back to enjoying your great posts. Less ranting, more awesome science 🤓

@BabaMc777 @Rainmaker1973 I just want him to stop ranting about me

Friends I REALLY NEED YOU I don’t know why I am being constantly harassed for an entire year by Massimo @Rainmaker1973 He keeps trying to insinuate he is better than me and that I copy him and always tries to incite followers against me paint me in a bad light and tries to discredit me because he feels entitled to the success of others, he has blocked even actual scientists and photographers in rages when they offer any criticisms The truth is every day he posts maybe 20 posts after me and has become a mirror of me, (i will post examples in post 2) But I have never ever said a word because there is millions of accounts posting the same stuff, he does not see these accounts he only targets me because I stayed silent and endured it Today I posted one post from a follower using the same language as the follower had used and just because it was posted after Massimo he took great delight in showing it but ignored the 20 he posted after me which I will show u, This is hugely petty but if he is making posts about me I’m entitled to defend myself Many of you who have known me from the beginning know that X gives me peace, friendship and freedom, I do not want to therefore be the target of this man’s obsession any more, 1/🧵

@david_kipping We're getting there, slowly...

We could live in a much better world if we chose to.

Dark energy not so dark anymore?

Starship always puts on a display, even during a RUD.
