UK Space Conference in Manny. Decent

I am so ready for the ‘digital twin’ term to end

LONDON BABY

Out of office on

Peep show will always be goated

Cool day down at Satellite Applications Catapult talking about all things AI & earth observation with lots of like minded folk

BBQ & the darts certainly means it’s Christmas

They wonder why people don’t want to use trains in this country and everyone would rather drive, they’re an absolute pile of sh*t #northern

I play the opposite of Whamageddon & basically just listen to Last Christmas on repeat for the whole month. Love George

All day meeting in Manchester today

At work I spend at least 3 hours a day doing multi factor authentication. The only one struggling to get into my accounts is me

Is Bluesky a thing again????

Desperately average week in work, so I’m going to cheer myself up and watch Robert De Niro & Al Pacino

Opened my emails this morning to find 3 completed reviews on a paper I submitted last month so I made a couple of memes to show how I'm currently feeling

Welcome back to another episode of me making stuff up as I go along when designing an experiment

I am on the Christmas train & it’s absolutely banging

When people ‘leave’ academia to go and work in ‘industry’, what does this actually mean? Are we just referring to a role in the private sector?

I was exceptionally talented when I was 2 years old

The best part of lab work is roping in relatively enthusiastic PhD students (Domino/Waluigi & George) to give you a hand doing some DIY science

Lesbian capital of the UK has delivered a fantastic few days away

Genuinely don’t believe there is a better feeling than putting your out of office on for annual leave

I’ve had a rather busy but fun morning - submitted a paper, cleared emails(ish) and been over to the engineering workshop (a thing of beauty) to pick up some kit that’s been made for our project! Not bad for a Monday

I would advocate for getting your house sprayed

I genuinely believe it’s not healthy the amount of time I spend watching Peep Show. Corfu 06

I think for probably the first time in my life, I actually feel competent in what I'm doing. Even though I'm probably juggling too much and time is not on my side, I feel as if work-wise, I'm kind of doing a half decent job

No matter the weather, we smoking

Spending the morning finishing off experiments in the cold-lab which have made me realise that gaffer tape and sealant is the solution to absolutely everything

Big up @willharcourt.bsky.social for getting me on here, let’s see what the crack is
