This weekend on Einstein A Go Go 3rrrfm we have an extraordinary guest line up including: Bernadette Jones-Freeman Paris Papagianis Rachel Kirby The Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute and Monash University guests are taking over! Join us from 11am Sunday on 102.7FM or via rrr.org.au

Preparing for an interview on Einstein A Go Go with Dr Shane Huntington OAM in the only way that feels appropriate! I’ll be on 3rrrfm between 11-12 talking all things meteorites and my research at ANU Earth Sciences 🌏 and Monash Earth, Atmosphere and Environment 🌏🌪️🍃

Thanks for having me! It’s always a great day when you get to chat meteorites with enthusiastic folk!

Good news if you also want to be a meteorite detective - we are hiring! If you are interested in doing a PhD with @ProfAndyTomkins and I, including finding meteorites and unlocking their secrets, please get in touch!

In case people missed Einstein A Go Go on 3rrrfm today you can catch up via the streaming link below. We had 3 amazing guests - Bernadette Jones-Freeman Paris Papagianis and Rachel Kirby all from Monash University. What a privilege to interview them all! rrr.org.au/explore/progra…

So many concerned parents writing in to my office about this decision. We need to value community-led early learning centres. You can show your support by signing the petition here: change.org/p/save-anu-com…

This is really sad news. Without the excellent care provided by UPCCC, it would have been incredibly difficult for me to complete my PhD and successfully continue into an academia. Support for community childcare centres on university campuses is support for women in academia.

Previously considered the most hazardous of all known asteroids, any chance that 99942 Apophis will impact Earth in the next 100 years has since been ruled out. But its flyby of Earth in April 2029 will be one of the rarest space events of our lives. 10 facts 🧵👇

A ring system around Earth? Monash Earth, Atmosphere and Environment 🌏🌪️🍃 researchers led by @ProfAndyTomkins found evidence suggesting that there might have been one 466 mil years ago. Read more to learn about its potential climate implications 👇 monash.edu/science/news-e…

Revelation

Evidence suggests the Earth had rings 466 million years ago! @ProfAndyTomkins published a great paper outlining the idea and evidence and now we are collaborating on some follow-up work. Even my kids have jumped on board with some space art! Full paper: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

I'm looking forward to chatting again with Dr Shane Huntington OAM on Einstein A Go Go 3rrrfm this Sunday! Tune in at 11am on 102.7 if you are local, or online at rrr.org.au

Quote of the day: “Space is big”

I had a great chat to Dr Shane Huntington OAM and his co-hosts on Einstein A Go Go this morning. Always a pleasure to nerd out on air about meteorites, field work and Antarctica! Monash Earth, Atmosphere and Environment 🌏🌪️🍃 Monash Science Fireballs in the Sky Curtin Geology

#ICYMI Dr Rachel Kirby spoke with Dr Shane Huntington OAM, A/Prof Lauren Ayton and Dr Scarlett Howard on Einstein A Go Go about her planetary science research and upcoming trip to Antarctica, listen here🎧 rrr.org.au/shared/broadca… Monash Earth, Atmosphere and Environment 🌏🌪️🍃

Arrived in beautiful Cape Town ready to start another Antarctic adventure with White Desert, this time with my favourite planetary geologists Rachel Kirby and @ProfAndyTomkins. Lots of gear to pack for close to a month on the ice. But before that, lots of Cape Malay food... 🤤

You are looking at the members of LifeMet, Australia's first Antarctic meteorite recovery expedition, fresh off the plane at Wolf's Fang Runway. Rachel Kirby, @ProfAndyTomkins and I will be spending the next month here in Antarctica searching for meteorites... (1/2)

We have arrived in Antarctica! It was great to catch up with the other two Securing Antarctica's Environmental Future teams in Queen Maud Land this season. Looking forward to a few days of training before heading up into the mountains for some awesome science!
