And now for something completely different: Forensic geoscience non-invasive detection and characterisation of underground clandestine complexes, bunkers, tunnels and firing ranges. CS4 is based my masters project, 2009. @milgeol @KeeleGGE @ESEImperial doi.org/10.1016/j.fors…

One Gusty afternoon in Gale crater... Some ripples formed, and can inform us about the ancient environment! @NasaCuriosity See my #LPSC2025 poster here: lpsc2025.ipostersessions.com/Default.aspx?s…

SUPER happy to announce that my first ever paper is out! @KirstenSiebach, @marslogander, @ICPlanetologist and I looked at grain size in the Stimson sandstone in Gale crater to study sediment provenance + Mars paleoatmosphere: agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

@wandbc now three weeks without taking the rubbish... @PutneyFleur

@wandbc Please collect the rubbish. It's been missed the last three collections now. SW15. @PutneyFleur

@rbstabbins you need stabilisation on that camera!

Geomorphology from a rover is cool and all but have you tried it from a boat?

@DrJeniMillard @NASAPersevere @MarsCuriosity @BPSC2024Leic The one slide where i forgot to adjust the heading 🤣

I know these days it’s @NASAPersevere that gets the attention but the images from @MarsCuriosity are just beautiful. There’s no doubt Mars was wetter in the past! These ripples betray the presence of water and blowing winds. So Earth-like! @BPSC2024Leic

@MarsRoverMapper I'll be there the whole week!

@GaryWilloughb11 You'd be grumbling about a lack of rain or power cuts preventing the irrigator working by the end of the year!

This looks very appealing after a very soggy 6 months farming on the marsh.

Ice? Salt? or Pressure? We found evidence of groundwater in the ancient Stimson desert sandstones, potentially extending #habitability window on #Mars, but what state was the water in? @MarsCuriosity @ESEImperial @spacegovuk @geosociety Read it here: doi.org/10.1130/G51849…

@GaryWilloughb11 That bit of string looks like it didn't help the situation...

Hedge trimmers about ready for a rest. #onedaytogo.

Evolution of a Lake Margin Recorded in the Sutton Island Member of the Murray Formation, Gale Crater, Mars. buff.ly/48z9lGc. Curiosity data are used to study ancient lacustrine systems at Gale crater.

It's great to see the "Album of Fluid Motion" a fascinating book authored by " Milton Van Dyke" (@Stanford), published in 1982, available online courses.washington.edu/me431/handouts… #FluidMechanics #FluidDynamics #ScienceIsBeautiful #FluidScience #STEM #Turbulence #phdvoice #Postdocvoice

@Hughes_Matt That MF 362 is in remarkable condition for a 35 year-old tractor!

Approach, land, taxi, tow. It's all the same down here, just in the Antarctic.

@wass74 I used to call there to fill up by CB400four on the way to sixth form. That was in ~2004

All change in #Horncastle with the demolition of Dears Garage! on the A158 That’s an impressive piece of plant! #SundayThoughts

@megafloods Please send the DOI, @megafloods !

Literally money down the drain. ‘Muddy floods’ are the erosion of hard-won fertile farm soils. We have the nature-based solution to keep the nutrient & biodiverse soil in the field while we let the runoff go. These measures are deployed across Europe. They work & are not costly

@TomCraven11 @EnvAgency It looks more like the Marsh down at Friskney than a field that was planted a few weeks ago

All Calm over lake Stickford this morning! I guess it’s going to have to be my responsibility to deal with the water @EnvAgency? 🤬

@SpaceWicca @MarsCuriosity you have to wear a beret and a chic stripy black and white jumper while doing ops!

This is probably nbd for seasoned Mars scientists but I get to go help with @MarsCuriosity operations during a team meeting next week in FRANCE and I am HELLA excited!! à bientôt, ChemCam!! 🇫🇷🥖🌌🤩

@W4IDB Please publish this data in realtime on your website! It would be useful information for the locals too!
