#ESAEuclid's big day is here. It's all grown up and ready to go off and leave its mark on the world. Expect more dinner conversations as the new discoveries come in.
Sleepless in Florida. 7.5 hrs to #ESAEuclid launch. Will be emotional whatever outcome. 20 yrs in the making: family lives marked by Euclid. Dinners w talks of Euclid this & that. Kids now grown, like Euclid. Launch shirt ready. Last good look. Safe journey baby. Euclid 📸 @esa

In a 🇬🇧 seaside town yday, I had 3 chats on #Taiwan before noon. Never happened before. Best was at the curryhouse. While waiting for food, staff & I shot the breeze on democracies. Glorious. Later when I opened the bag, restaurant had given me extra food, a “#democracy special.”

Indeed, 'Us together, the best of times.'
Fellow directors & advisors @workbetterinnov honoured to be next to you. Charles Dickens, born in Portsmouth 🇬🇧 1812: “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times” Worst was the marginalisation we saw in lockdown, now ever growing. Us together, the best of times. 4/4
