What a venue! What an event! #Cryo2ice is almost over, but not quite yet. Time now to summarise this incredible "family reunion" of our milk and cookies, CryoSat and ICESat-2. We're about to hear from all our chairs, before a wrap up from @tparrine & @Thorsten_Markus

@helenafricker showcases the polar discoveries from three eras of satellite altimetry at the #cryo2ice symposium ❄️
Next era and new discoveries start with EDGE! Coming soon!(?)

@BBCAmos Thanks for all of your work at the BBC, highlighting and advocating for science! What an amazing career. Thanks for bringing us all along! Best wishes for your next adventure!!

🚨 Personal news: I'm leaving the BBC after a 38-year career. I've seen and done some amazing things; and met some incredible people. It's been an epic privilege to cover the science beat for "Auntie" for three decades. Time to pass the torch. See you on the other side👋

In 1968, during Apollo 8, Bill Anders offered to humanity among the deepest of gifts an astronaut can give. He traveled to the threshold of the Moon and helped all of us see something else: ourselves. He embodied the lessons and the purpose of exploration. We will miss him.
