Astronauts Butch and Suni finally back on Earth Dolphins circled their capsule after it landed off the coast of Florida.

I love this story. Though I note that the 17 hr journey back was shorter than the York-Naples train journey a couple of summers back with the missus. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Super that York could host old Oxford chum Mark Howarth, expounding brilliant SpyCatcher applications; really innovative ways of seeing whole field of Engineering Biology through the lens of the interface between the physical and life sciences - UK has strength in depth @physicsoflifeuk.bsky.social

I don’t really qualify, but if you’d be interested in a piece articulating the exciting potential opportunities for Dutch and U.K. PoL researchers @physicsoflifeuk.bsky.social
to work together…
