🌙 while we’re science communicating… as much as @philuponscience’s rendition of debussy’s “clair de lune” set to moons of the solar system was great… “pale blue dot“ was taken by @NASAVoyager 1 in 1990. the img of Earth from Saturn is by @CassiniSaturn in 2013 #ASC2018

appropriately inspiring presentation from @jackie_randles of @InspiringAus & Sheryn Pitman of @inspiringSthAus at #ASC2018 on widespread engagement of small communities across SA & NSW… both underlined the importance of inclusivity and responding to local diversity

fantastic provocation by @DjukeVeldhuis at #ASC2018 — “if a university researcher invented the world wide web today, would the institute allow them to give it away?”
