As we lead up to the 50th anniversary of the launch of Apollo 11, read about the women who helped make the mission a success #WomeninSTEM #Apollo50 sciencefriday.com/segments/the-w…

#OTD in 1969, the crew of #Apollo11 embarked on humanity's most audacious mission - one that would become our greatest achievement. Looking forward to this week's #Apollo50 celebrations and talking about plans to return to the #Moon.

Fylde Coast Physics annual awards went with a bang! Blackpool Sixth Lancaster Physics Ogden Trust Future U #UniConnect Matthew Tosh Blackpool Sixth Science #pyrotechic #physics

🎆Fylde Coast Physics annual awards went with a bang! 🎆 Thanks to Matthew Tosh who came and gave two talks yesterday: Carve a Career (which deals with failure, MentalHealth, external challenges and how to turn them in to opportunities for success) and Science of Fireworks.

Just had a really useful chat with a local physics teacher who is trying to find more role models working in physics and engineering who went to regular, non-selective state schools, who her students would find more relatable. Holler at me if that's you! #ChatPhysics #asechat

Thanks to everyone who visited us today for our Open Day 👋 🎞️ Missed out? Here's a video tour of campus, created by our digital ambassador, Luke. fal.cn/3k07C
