theguardian.com/environment/… Thanks for the physics news update this morning @TimLihoreau @ClassicFM😁 MJ is mega joules (millions of joules) rather than milli joules (thousandths of a joule) 😉 Keep up the great music and repartee getting us through to Christmas 🎄

A change of scenery for me this last 3 days in York at @STEMLearningUK. Enjoyed being on the leaners’ side of the classroom for a change. Fantastic CPD and great support from the mentors. @WeAreComputing #summerofcomputing

All this AND ‘realistic’ lamps with varying resistance 😁😁
For #European fans!!! Update to Circuit Construction Kit now allows you IEC standard for circuit schematics 💡🤯💡🤯 Tell your friends! Just go to options menu as seen below, or launch sim with "?schematicStandard=iec" appended to the URL. Like so: phet.colorado.edu/sims/html/…

Really looking forward to the fabulous line-up at the IoP regional physics CPD event from 2nd to 5th December 😁 talkphysics.org/events/iop-r…
#OnThisDay 1967 astrophysicist Jocelyn Bell Burnell discovered the first radio pulsars. You might recognise the waves from the 1979 Joy Division album, Unknown Pleasures, showing 100 consecutive pulses from the first pulsar discovered, known then as CP1919 bit.ly/2J6em2F
