Just published - the first paper on Venusian plasmas that I've been involved in: "Force Analysis of Venus's Induced Magnetosphere: A Multifluid Hall–Magnetohydrodynamics Study" published in ApJ by Nihan Chen and collaborators. iopscience.iop.org/article/10.384…

It’s been fantastic to play a part in this project led by Lancaster University's Michael Aspinall. Congratulations to everyone involved 👏 #spaceweather Met Office Space lancaster.ac.uk/news/-first-sp…

A fab display of the aurora borealis in Scotland this evening!

Short timelapse from thusday 3rd April between 21.45 and 22.30 showing Fram2 mission spacecraft and proton blobs/aurora over Loch Lomond West Scotland #tamithaskov #Fram2 #aurora #lochlomond #Dragon #Auroraborealis

What…just….happened!! 🤯😮🤩 The most epic substorm fighting the moonlight, that’s what happened!! My indoors view,due to strong winds tonight!What a scene after 1am!! Taken from the Sperrins, looking NE over Keady mountain and Binevenagh 😍James Rowley-Hill Jure Atanackov Harlan Thomas

There's strong geomagnetic activity at the moment. If this continues into darkness, there'll be a decent chance of seeing the aurora from the Midlands northwards - maybe even further south. Unfortunately, northern areas are looking cloudy. Image: AuroraWatch UK

So who else is heading to #EGU2025 this weekend?

Heading across Europe for the #EGU2025 meeting in Vienna. Time for a snack in Frankfurt before my final train of the journey #Train2EGU 🚄

Absolutely thrilled to be appointed President Elect of the Royal Astronomical Society. I’m looking forward to working with the current President (Prof Mike Lockwood), RAS Council and the RAS staff over the next 12 months before taking up the role of President in May 2026.

Had a really fun time at the Windermere Science Festival this afternoon talking about why the northern lights have been visible from the #LakeDistrict in the last year. Has to rate as one of the most beautiful talk venues I’ve visited!
