With the death of Twitter, and the fracturing of social media, I’m going to try an experiment! To that end, I’m going post some of the more interesting things I’ve read online each Thursday. I hope you find them interesting too. Or not, I don’t mind. I’m just going to keep doing it anyway. I’ll post links in no particular order, and they might not be recent. Just things I’ve found interesting in the previous week or so....

I’m absolutely thrilled to announce that, together with my wife Mars, I’ll be heading to the West and North West coasts of Tasmania to present a series of space-themed events and workshops for kids and adults alike.
