#BA747Farewell Goodbye to the Queen of the Skies, it was an honour to fly on-board during our flight tests
British Airways is saying goodbye to the Boeing 747 "Queen of the Skies".
G-CIVB will fly to Kemble as #BA400 flightradar24.com/BAW400/25b…
G-CIVY will fly to St. Athan as #BA747 flightradar24.com/BAW747/25b…

I just published Space Weather Impacts and Emerging Citizen Science Efforts @SAIRA_Network @HamRadioSCI link.medium.com/8MbaZU51Q1
Come and say hi to chat about how we are producing a lightweight carry on radiation detector for aircraft

Curious, how many #avgeeks and #pilot are aware of the ICAO regulations on Space Weather and Atmospheric Radiation?

Come and see our poster at the session this afternoon for an update on the development of our #citizenscience programme, located in the Aviation area

Good to see other people looking at the concept of #citizenscience for space weather monitoring

Space Weather could cause this:
BBC News - Could the world cope if GPS stopped working?

Some people (understandably) express concern that they may be stopped by Secuirty when carrying one of our detectors. This goes to show what you can take on a plane!
✈️ Components for ALICE's new inner detector have travelled to CERN from across the globe.
Passengers were in for a surprise when they discovered their travel companion was not a human but a piece of a particle detector!

Come and visit the @SpaceAtSurrey stand at #IAC2019 to see our radiation detector development

Data uploaded for PhD student @BenClewer’s @SAIRA_Network ionising radiation monitor - see our work at our stand! #IAC2019
Interesting to read about #ProjectSunrise by #Qantas Whilst looking at the health of those on-board, will they be looking at radiation exposure too? #spaceweather #radiation #aviation #avgeek

Not forgetting a ton of freebies! - All because of @worldspaceweek in Guildford - thanks to @uniofsurrey @institute_of_physics @npldigital @spacegovuk @saira_network @surreysatellites and satro.org.uk
Come and say hi and find out how you can volunteer to do some science! We are on the high street in Guildford for #WSW2019 #WorldSpaceWeek
@UniOfSurreyCPE
Getting all packed up for tomorrow. If you're in Guildford stop by and say hi. We are on the high street displaying for #WorldSpaceWeek @UniOfSurreyCPE @UniOfSurrey @SpaceAtSurrey
