Jonathan Eastwood discusses work done in collaboration with colleagues in Imperial's Space Lab exploring the need for evidence-based policy for space safety.
Imperial Policy Forum@imperial_forum9 Oct 2020
Our latest blog post by Dr Jonathan Eastwood of @ICSpaceLab and @IC_SpaceAtmos explores why evidence and safety must be central to the UK’s space strategy, and how Imperial research can help. Read it here: wwwf.imperial.ac.uk/blog/the…

An extreme #SolarStorm that narrowly missed Earth in 2012 could have been even worse if paired with another space weather event, suggests new research from our @ImperialPhysics ow.ly/INFh50BE0Nz

More exciting work led by our group has recently been published in @NatureAstronomy. The paper shows the discovery of unique ultraviolet aurora at comet 67P visited by @ESA_Rosetta ! imperial.ac.uk/news/204633/u…

Unique ultraviolet aurora spied at comet visited by Rosetta | Imperial News | Imperial College...

ESA’s Rosetta mission has revealed a unique kind of aurora sparked by the solar wind in the gas surrounding Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko.

A great article telling the story space exploration by Imperial built magnetometers.
Imperial Space&Atmos@IC_SpaceAtmos21 Aug 2020
Read this excellent article from Imperial 48/Summer 2020 on the history of magnetometers built by our group and the discoveries these than led to. They have explored space from the solar wind to the Earth’s magnetopshere and as far as Saturn’s icy moons. imperial.ac.uk/stories/next-…

Next stop: Jupiter

Next stop: Jupiter – we explore the science behind magnetic fields and why they have the power to tell us so much about space
