My students Ryan and Lily have been having fun in London. First steps towards laser communications from the city to orbiting satellites = global and secure, high-bandwidth communications! Durham University Durham Physics #durhamCfAI
What do you do as a last resort when you can’t find any stars through your telescope?? The moon! Just don’t look down the eye piece. #durhamCfAI PhD student Ryan realigning our telescope and projecting the moon on to the dome at Isaac Newton Group Durham Physics Durham University
Treated to a lunar eclipse and a planetary alignment last night at Isaac Newton Group with #CfAIDurham Durham Physics Durham University . Venus, Jupiter, Mars and Saturn all in a row.
Physics - Twinkle, Twinkle, Star No More physics.aps.org/articles/v15/1… interesting quotes from this Dr Osborn chap "So, it all comes together"... Thanks for the article American Physical Society
A brief break from the hard work. Spot the telescope camouflaged in the stars. With James from project partners Lumi and our team from Durham University Durham Physics.
Tonight’s favourite photo shows #durhamCfAI Durham Physics students Ryan and Lily working in a blur outside the Isaac Newton Group Isaac Newton Telescope on La Palma.
What does #SpaceSustainability mean to you? James Osborn is an Associate Professor of Space Science Durham University, he leads a project assessing space sustainability in the era of increasing satellite constellations Here's what Space Sustainability means to him👇 #WorldSpaceWeek
Huge congratulations to Durham Physics graduate Dr Rosemary Coogan who has been selected as a new generation astronaut by European Space Agency! What an out of this world achievement! 🚀 ✨ 👉 fal.cn/3tTnV #DUInspire #DUresearch
From Apollo 13 to #Artemis 1. 🌖 Our engineers designed and built Orion Spacecraft. And it just eclipsed Apollo 13’s record for the farthest distance traveled away from Earth by a spacecraft designed for humans. 🥇 And it’s not done yet.
Team Durham Physics #DurhamCfAI are at SPIE #PhotonicsWest2023 this week. We have 5 talk on optical turbulence monitoring, forecasting and modelling for free-space laser communications. If you are in town and want to meet up - let me know! with Gordon Love
Team Durham Physics in action at #photonicswest . 5 great talks on Earth to Space comms! In particular fantastic to see Lily Westerby-Griffiths and Ryan Griffin give talks to an international audience as PhD students and a superb invited talk from our great leader James Osborn.
Last night I was lucky enough to attend the @NEEChamber annual dinner in Durham cathedral. Thanks to Durham University. Fascinating to hear whats going on with local businesses and to see a lot of interest in our work in the Durham Physics #DurhamCfAI.
Communications and Observations through Atmospheric Turbulence (COAT2023) all done! Thanks for coming to Durham University Durham Physics We had 100 people here and another 40 online. A good mix of academic and industry too. Discovery science with a real-world impact!
