OK; you all asked if this was possible…..

Elon, I have long admired you and what you have accomplished, especially at SpaceX and Tesla. You know as well as I do, that Butch and Suni are returning with Crew-9, as has been the plan since last September. Even now, you are not sending up a rescue ship to bring them home. They are returning on the Dragon capsule that has been on ISS since last September.

@JesBarrio_ @CommsChem @ImperialChemEng @Angus_Pedersen Great work Jason and team!!

kicking off the weekend with Jason's first PhD work in @CommsChem 🚀 He explored different ionomers in porous FeNC catalysts and their impact on performance in alkaline gas diffusion electrodes. @ImperialChemEng @Angus_Pedersen 📖Read more: rdcu.be/d8bFz

@Caiwu_Liang Congrats Caiwu, inspirational 😎

Honored to be the recipient of the first Imperial Zero Pollution Pioneering Award! Huge thanks to Ifan, James, and Reshma for your unwavering support!

Presented my first poster at the @CPE_Imperial annual symposium - super interesting symposium with many different insights and perspectives, can’t wait to learn more as the PhD progresses :)

Awesome week of science in London thanks to @pintofscience, enjoyed hearing about human-machine interfaces (from Imperial researchers!) as well as Dr Michael Foale’s exciting astronaut career 😎

@IRENA Interesting data! This figure needs to be better - for starters Cu is copper not cobalt 😅

The centralised supply chains are likely to remain as they are for the foreseeable future, according to an @IRENA report on the geopolitics of #CriticalMaterials. See the current and projected mining and refining dynamics below and learn more👉bit.ly/44lLEz0

@hankin_anna @CoatingsSolar @AJCowanGroup @georgecreasey27 @ICL_Electrochem Really cool stuff, amazing to see this project develop!

We were honoured to attend and present our work with the Solar Thermal Energy Research Group #STERG #StellenboschUniversity, @CoatingsSolar , @AJCowanGroup and J. Major at the inaugural Stellenbosch University Green Hydrogen Symposium. Now enjoying a very nice office view ⛰️

@Caiwu_Liang @Interfacial_EC @Reshma_R_Rao @ImpMaterials @durrant_group Well done Caiwu, such a hero!

Just had the honor of presenting a poster at the House of Parliament as a finalist in STEM for Britain. A memorable experience discussing hydrogen research with policymakers. Proud to show our work at @Interfacial_EC and with @Reshma_R_Rao at @ImpMaterials and in @durrant_group.

Thank you @B18Diamond @VeronicaCelorr1 for all your help and support! So incredibly proud to work with these *synchrotron superstars* to understand really complex solid/liquid interfaces!👨‍🔬👩‍🔬 @Caiwu_Liang @sidhalder900 @Yifeng_Wang2000 @TsengCin @yemin_tao @mpr_nano

Robot chemist sparks row with claim it created new materials go.nature.com/3taZzuv

📢There is still time to apply for 2 PhD studentships at @ImpMaterials and @Grantham_IC on electrochemical production of green hydrogen and value-added chemicals. The funding covers home student tuition fees and stipend. #AcademicTwitter #phdopportunity More details below 👇

Ending a week of intense science at @DiamondLightSou! Super team effort by @Caiwu_Liang, @Benjamin_S_Moss, @yemin_tao, @Yifeng_Wang2000, @sidhalder900 - a joy to work with these amazingly talented people to study (very complex!) solid-liquid interfaces😍 @mpr_nano @ImpMaterials

So amazing to listen to @astro_timpeake @katehumble talk all about space tonight at Southwark Cathedral! Can’t wait to read Tim’s new book!! 🪐😁 Electrochemical technologies will play a big role in reaching full in-situ resource utilisation (ISRU), very exciting times ahead!

📢 Exciting announcement! UK astronauts are gearing up for space! 🚀🇬🇧 👩‍🚀👩‍🚀👨‍🚀👨‍🚀 We have signed a new agreement with @Axiom_Space that could see UK astronauts in orbit: 🔬 conducting scientific research 🔋 demonstrating new technology 👧🏾🧒🏼 engaging in outreach activities

Undergrad ✅ Onto the PhD now - huge thanks to everyone who has been a part of my journey so far, absolutely no way I could have reached this stage without the support ❤️

LUPEX will land at the Moon’s South Pole with the primary goals to look for the presence of water on the Moon and its usability for future astronauts. The data gathered from this mission will allow engineers to know how much water will be needed to be brought from Earth for future crewed missions to the Moon. Water will be the most valuable resource for crewed missions to space as it can be converted to oxygen for breathing, hydrogen for rocket fuel, act as radiation shielding, and of course, for drinking.
