Day 1 was fantastic, we can’t wait to welcome everyone for day 2! 🤩 reminder that this morning our plenary talks are @spacecentre Shuttle Suite and all following Mars-related talks are there too. Giant Planet atmospheres, moons and Mercury will be @SpaceParkLeic #BPSCLeicester





















📽️ @uniofleicester PhD student Niamh Topping on @bbcemt last night discussing findings from research taking place into the #Winchcombe meteorite fall. Detailed imaging & chemical analyses determined that Winchcombe contains approximately 11% extra-terrestrial water (by weight).





There are more than 120 authors on the @ScienceAdvances paper about the #Winchcombe #Meteorite - the first scholarly publication. In a nice touch, those authors include the town's people who donated fallen material to the national collection. 😍 bbc.co.uk/news/science-e…
