It’s been a great night that our branch @IOPEast held the 3 Minute Wonder (3MW) competition tonight at the @DeptofPhysics. Congrats to Dr Jonathan Bar David the winner and Ana R. Hernandez Rodriguez the runner-up. Many thanks go to the committee members (iop.org/physics-community/io…).

We'd like to thank @NorwichSciFest for allowing our dedicated team of volunteers from @IOP and @eaaro to organise a stand at the @theforumnorwich. We engaged with an enthusiastic audience introducing them to the world of #physics through #meteorites, #meteors and a live #radar

A large solar flare erupted Thursday and is set to reach Earth Saturday, which could result in a strong geomagnetic storm and cause the aurora borealis, or Northern Lights, to be visible across large parts of the US and Europe. cnn.it/3GxMNrH

“We want to lead the effort to open new frontiers in space, and do it quickly and safely. Our engine maximizes use of proven technology, eliminates failure modes of previous NTP concepts, and has a specific impulse more than twice that of chemical systems” Dr M. Eades @USNCTech

Our latest data confirms Cosmos 2004 is still intact. Our final risk assessment showed a computed miss distance of 11 meters (+16 / -11 meters at 1-sigma uncertainty). More to come next week as we will share a more detailed risk analysis of this event.

We are monitoring a very high risk conjunction between two large defunct objects in LEO. Multiple data points show miss distance <25m and Pc between 1% and 20%. Combined mass of both objects is ~2,800kg. Object 1: 19826 Object 2: 36123 TCA: Oct 16 00:56UTC Event altitude: 991km
