This is a terrific interview by @sallynugent. Polite but unyielding in the face of political bluster.
'How much of the money have you spent?'

Full head of hair, mentally sharp and still pretty good physically at 100
What a life in nature, low cortisol and a strong mission does to a man

Coolest video ever taken with an iPhone.
Only one chance in this lifetime…
Like watching sunset at the beach from the most foreign seat in the cosmos, I couldn’t resist a cell phone video of Earthset. You can hear the shutter on the Nikon as @Astro_Christina is hammering away on 3-shot brackets and capturing those exceptional Earthset photos through the 400mm lens. @AstroVicGlover was in window 3 watching with @Astro_Jeremy next to him.
I could barely see the Moon through the docking hatch window but the iPhone was the perfect size to catch the view…this is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye. Enjoy.

Around the moon and back in a week. That was better than any TV I've seen in a long time
Watching this live has been so amazing 🚀 🌍
A masterclass in communications from NASA.
I’m going to miss having my living room as a pop up Mission Control after today…

We see our home planet as a whole, lit up in spectacular blues and browns. A green aurora even lights up the atmosphere. That's us, together, watching as our astronauts make their journey to the Moon.
ALT A full disk image of Earth, as seen from the Orion capsule. The planet is a pale blue, swirling with white clouds and glowing slightly lighter blue in place from reflected light. From about 8 to 9 o'clock, a large brown landmass is Africa, with the Iberian peninsula twinkling with lights just where the planet curves. At the 1 o'clock spot, aurora glow in a thin green glow, just barely separated from the planet's surface. Earth is set against the black of space. Credit: NASA/Reid Weisman
I spent many years speaking to Staffordshire and Cheshire on Signal 1 from this building 📻
Times change and this is an example of that - it’s now a Bargain World!
The stairs still had the same creek they used to have as I bounced down them on the way to do my show…

The @VirginRadioUK relaunch is brilliant 🤌🏼 Finally feel like it’s found a real niche and how good is this playlist with Huey Morgan…
What a treat to open @global player this morning to find a special little #StrangerThings radio station 📻
A really clever way to market the new series which oozes eighties with presenters, jingles and even vintage feeling adverts…

Train attack.
Thoughts with the passengers and crew who were on the LNER train.
An outstanding perfomance by driver and signallers to divert from the fast track to Huntingdon station doubtless saved lives.
Explainer on rail security and current disruption.
