How rubbly asteroids can create their own moons. Cool visualization from @esa. We learned this from @NASA's DART asteroid deflection mission. Important to figure out how to protect Earth from big impacts. More info: https://t.co/wIS8LzgbpZ Image: https://t.co/wkXVdoRh2Z

Our final tour of the school year - with a visit from the students at @StMonica_TCDSB. We had a fantastic time showing them @KITE_UHN simulation labs and leading a design-thinking workshop to apply their knowledge. These creative young learners will do amazing things in #STEM!
