NTU physics field trip day 2, the Beaghmore standing stones. #NTUdarkskies22 NTUScienceTechnology

Day 3 of the NTU physics field trip, the sun came out for us! #NTUdarkskies22 NTUScienceTechnology

Day 3 additional, physics students observing the moon in twilight #NTUdarkskies22 NTUScienceTechnology

Rebecca is a great speaker, super knowledgeable, and gives great talks; (and has an amazing project supervisor 😉)... so get your tickets booked! #NTU NTUScienceTechnology

So guess what we are now going to discuss in my year 1 astrophysics lecture tomorrow... this absolute mess of a statement to the Science and Technology committee and the subsequent excellent responses from women in physics #WomenInSTEM

Gem of a job! Academic Practice Developer (TILT) - Nottingham Trent University vacancies.ntu.ac.uk/displayjob.asp…

Just a reminder that league tables such as this are based on statistics that have nothing to do with the quality of teaching or chances of a student getting a high quality degree. Equally so the Russell Group designation... it means nothing. The Times and The Sunday Times

Requested an update on why my paper had been sitting idle with a journal for three months after submission and I get back : "I am rejecting your article on the basis of its abstract" This isn't normal right...? Academic Chatter™

As the hourly tweets from UCU and Jo Grady say "every university is on strike" let me just remind you that it's not actually all universities. We are not striking although we do support our colleagues who are. #ucuRISING Students are still being taught (face to face) as usual

Urgent email says "baby plum tomatoes swapped for medium tomatoes", HelloFresh UK please note 1 single salad tomato is not the same as a pack of baby plum tomatoes and this is the same for two other seperate meals, surely you could have popped a few more in...?

I am exceptionally glad that I work at Nottingham Trent University as it's one of the few UK unis which didn't have strike action planned next week. The sudden reversal of @UCU last thing on a Friday seems like a nightmare for all members who have to now teach on Monday or need to sort childcare!

Been a while but have written about the upcoming lunar landing of the Chandrayaan-3 mission: theconversation.com/chandrayaan-3-…

Not often I get on TV and my first time with a live translator. It was good fun and happy to do it again! NTU Press Office NTUScienceTechnology

I love the picture for our NTUScienceTechnology X account with our students and Ian Whittaker 🌌🤩🔭 Nottingham Trent University NTU Research

'...it is the first step on a longer road towards space tourism' Space physics expert Dr Ian Whittaker talks to the The Telegraph about the first privately-funded spacewalk NTUScienceTechnology NTU Research Ian Whittaker telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2024/0…

This is the first one I have had in physical print for a while, must be getting closer to presenting my own space tv show 😉

We have managed to get a paper published on our budget planeterella. Worth noting the three authors are an academic, a student, and our technical lead. If you want a school/library/business visit with the kit then let me know on my academic email.

A team Nottingham Trent University has developed a 'planeterella', an instrument which can simulate the Earth's magnetic field and mimic the effects of the northern lights. Ian Whittaker, senior lecturer in physics, explains how it works 👇👇👇 NTU Research NTUScienceTechnology

If anyone is keen on a talk about student co-creation or building the planeterella then let me know #aurora #Physics #NTU
