Music and sound didn’t just play an integral role in the making of our new film. Spend any time reading the lyrics to Navigate the Seas of the Sun by Bruce Dickinson and you’ll see why we thought it was a perfect choice. #ESACluster #SeasoftheSun #europeanspaceagency #spaceplasma #brucedickinson

Sound and music played a huge role in the making of Seas Of The Sun, with Karlotta Skagfield's beautiful original score at its heart, accompanied by a wonderful contribution from cello supremo Jo Quail. Watch (and hear) it now: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Go_r... #seasofthesun #ESACluster #spacerocks

Taking a moment to remember a very special Earthling -- Laika, the first creature to orbit the Earth, on the 68th anniversary of her voyage aboard Sputnik 2. By all accounts, she was a very good girl.

What they said! 🤘🖖

T-minus 90 minutes! 🖖🤘

We cannot wait! 🖖🤘

Come check this out- a new film about an old mission. We’re very proud of it 🖖🤘

Eventually I’ll feel confident enough in my Bluesky abilities to do more than promote my work, but for now… * waves at work * 🖖🤘

We were thrilled to screen Seas of the Sun in Paris for a very special audience of space plasma scientists. We'll be hosting an online screening and live chat on October 30th at 18:00 GMT / 19:00 CET. Watch this space! 🖖🤘 #seasofthesun #ESAcluster #spacerocks @esa.int youtu.be/Go_rve555TQ?...

A gentle reminder that James Gunn also produced Brightburn, an incredibly horrific what-if -- and it's Superman in all but name...

I miss him so much. M On the 17th anniversary of his death, I share some of his best work. - KCM

If you need us we'll be freaking out about these images today. Just... wow. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Heretic, but it's Hugh Grant trying to convince you to care about Avatar.

Alien: Earth looks sick but I have many questions.

Thrilled to be working with @drcarpineti.bsky.social on this -- good people, important causes. #watchthisspace

I mean…

True story: When I was a contractor at a NASA facility I kept M&Ms on my desk. A civil servant I worked with ate a few one day. The next day I came in to find a pound bag on my desk. He wanted to "reimburse" me because he didn't want the few he ate to be seen as a gift. Anyway

If you need me I’ll be ODing on the comments.

In other words: Deep inhale. Insert thumb into mouth. Extend fingers ***PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFT***

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

A joy to be a part of this 🖖🤘

Hello SA

It blows my mind that @stevenwilsonhq.bsky.social's new album The Overview (that I did a little PR blurb for w/ @spacerocksofficial.bsky.social) is #3 on UK Album charts, between Sabrina Carpenter and Lady Gaga!? Let's just say the stuff I listen to usually wouldn't share that space...impressive!

Throw back to @metalhammer.bsky.social‘s former editor-in-chief @alexandermilas.bsky.social talking us through Black Sabbath’s background growing up in Birmingham - the Home of Metal www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhM-...

Had a lot of fun discussing prog, space and @stevenwilsonhq.bsky.social's new album with fellow nerd @alexandermilas.bsky.social, astrophysicist @markmccaughrean.bsky.social and solar scientist Miho Janvier yesterday. You can watch it here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUZa...

A monumental result. What an achievement this is.

5PM today — we’re talking about Mars. www.youtube.com/live/yEyiKOL...

I especially love my job when I get to promote science 🧪🔭 in connection to music 🎧🎸, my other passion (well, and scifi...). I was super chuffed 💪 that @spacerocksofficial.bsky.social asked me to talk about my experience with the Overview effect in honour of @stevenwilsonhq.bsky.social's new album!

🖖🤘

The Overview, the incredible new album by Steven Wilson, is out this Friday. It’s all about how space can change your perspective, so we asked a few friends of Space Rocks how space has changed theirs. First up, @esa.int solar physicist, Miho Janvier. #spacerocks #stevenwilson #theoverview
