Bath Space Society

New year, new website! We're welcoming in 2018 with the launch of our new website, bathspacesociety.org It includes a blog of our projects & events and information on our Committee & how to contact us. Any feedback is welcome in the comments below or via the site Contact page.

"Engineering isn't simply about wearing hard hats." The fast-growing UK space sector is brimming with engineering opportunities that you might not realise are out there. 🚀 Interested? spacecareers.uk is a great place to start. @SpaceCareersUK | #TEWeek19

I left @KEVICHB school with an interest in space engineering and started Mechanical Engineering at @bathenganddes @UniofBath. Here I got my first taste of space engineering with @TeamBathRoving @BathSpaceSoc in the @UKSEDS rover competition. Here's our first rover, Steve! (3/11)

We're so proud of our @TeamBathRoving for winning the 2019 Olympus Rover Trials!

Quite a crowd watching the last vibration tests for @BathSpaceSoc. Ear defenders on!

We're excited to be at @UKSEDS #ORT2019 with our rover, St3ve! Looking forward to seeing how we get on later

Huge congratulations to @USCRPL for becoming the first student group in history to launch a rocket to above the Kármán line at 100km altitude and into space! 🚀

The outlet glacier of Vavilov Ice Cap has gone from sliding 20 meters per year to 20 meters per day. What triggered this dramatic surge is still unknown, but w/ our @NASAEarth satellites data we now have a time-lapse of the damage. Dive into the situation: go.nasa.gov/2Gp9FLK

It's our third birthday!! 😊🎉🎈 Join us in CB 3.5 at 18:15 this evening for free birthday cake and some fun games! 🎂

It was great to see so many of you at our stargazing event tonight!

Make sure to join us tonight for a fun #stargazing event! We'll be meeting outside The Edge at 20:00 - it'll be a great opportunity to meet your fellow SpaceSoc members and to see stars you've never seen before.

Come meet us at the @thesubath groups fair in Founder's Hall and find out about our @TeamBathRoving rovers and other events!

Thanks to @JDudley1123 from @UKSEDS, we now have a fantastic new logo! Thank you Joseph!

We came second in this year's competition with our rover Stephen and we're hoping get the win next time!

We're also @UniofBath's @UKSEDS branch, connecting to other students all round the country and competing as @TeamBathRoving in the @UKSEDS rover competitions
