Glad to see the weather is so pleasant to welcome students (back) to @UniofExeter! Just don’t get too used it - it’s been some combination of torrentially raining and near freezing in the last week alone. Have a great freshers week! 😎.

I know I expressed scepticism when @affinitybyserif was acquired by @canva, but credit where it's due, this is a pleasant surprise. It's still early days, but this kind of ethos does a lot to esuage my scepticism. More companies following this example would be great!.

Unfortunately not able to make it to #LPTMM2024 this week. Looks like a great conference, at an incredible venue. However, I am neck deep in #ALAN simulations and nighttime satellite observations, so there is that. I hope everyone has a fantastic time!.

It’s a hive of activity on the @UniofExeter campus today. Open days are here! . A huge welcome to all of the potential students and their entourages. I hope you are inspired that same way I was when I visited for the first time. I look forward to seeing some of you next year. 🙂

Did you know that as of yesterday, #Exeter (and most of the UK) has no nighttime for nearly 2 months? .

An #aurora over #devon!? Never seen one before, and did not think my first time would be this far south in my own back garden. Quite a geomagnetic storm raging right now, with quite frankly stunning results.
