The sheer joy of discovering the tape measure malteser game. Key lessons learnt: 1. Tension is key 2. Choose elevation wisely 3. Most spherical chocolates only

French airspace during the Opening Ceremony of the 2024 Olympics

Oh the poor Olympics camera operators and directors. Beautiful single shots that took months of planning completely screwed by the rain because they don’t have a second camera for the director to cut away to and give time for a lens wipe.

Trust my Northern Irish mother to wangle her way into Opening Ceremony coverage for 2 countries 🤣 #Olympic

The before and after on that heroic #Starship flap, clinging on for dear life. Incredible to watch, bravo to the engineering team

That looks like a successful soft landing. DAMN WHAT A LEGEND!

1. I'm legit shocked by the design of @Meta's new notification informing us they want to use the content we post to train their AI models. It's intentionally designed to be highly awkward in order to minimise the number of users who will object to it. Let me break it down.

Oh dear.... @neiltyson teaching that wings work through the fallacy of equal transit theory. As if the atoms in one piece of air somehow know what the atoms in in the air on the other side of a wing are doing. We have enough problems with new pilots getting this strange

Aurora is something else, amazed we’re seeing it in Derby

Paul from #TheTraitors was on Deal or no deal and won 10p. No wonder he's evil.

Beautiful obit for Tony. "One colleague shared that getting anywhere in New York with him took ages because of all the people he stopped to speak to on the way." Yup!!

Pupils at Histon & Impington Brook Primary School had a pre Christmas treat with a visit from Great British Bake Off finalist Andrew Smyth (@cakesmyth). What a great evening for one of our Cambridgeshire Primary schools. 🧁🚀 Read more on our website - https://t.co/ayj9Hyw30Q

Some of the team ready to watch the launch in California! 🚀 #EIRSAT1 #irelandsfirstsatellite #flyyoursatellite #launchday

Sometimes I learn something while making a video that I am too excited about to wait to share. The space shuttle had deployable air data sensors that flipped out from underneath the heat shield once re-entry was complete.

Good to hear @cakesmyth talk about the importance of curiosity and failure in moving forwards in life!

I’m not quite sure how to explain what’s happened tonight, because it’s still happening - but here goes… At 4:40pm I jumped on a train from London to Edinburgh.. It was comfy, it was quiet In hindsight, too good to last…
