@projecthailmary @andyweirauthor @AmazonMGMStudio Happily!

[Tim Peake @astro_timpeake]

I loved the book ‘Project Hail Mary’ by @andyweirauthor and was excited to finally see the movie version. There is a lot to love about it. Dr Ryland Grace is a passionate, maverick science teacher (and very reluctant astronaut) sent to space to save Earth. In the process he finds friendship in the most unlikely of circumstances and the movie is packed with all the usual brilliant science that Andy is known for (The Martian).

Who knew we could be moved to tears of laughter and sadness by an unlikely partnership between a rock-like alien and a human, but Ryan Gosling and the incredible creation that is ‘Rocky’, voiced and pupeteered by Justin Ortiz, did just that.

It’s rare to watch a movie and want to say ‘go and watch this at the cinema’ but this is definitely one of them 🚀🪨🌍👩‍🚀.

What a fantastic day @sciencemuseum answering lots of your questions in the new Space Gallery, dropping into the Live Lessons and the Wonderlab, seeing your great work coding with @Raspberry_Pi AstroPi and catching up with the @airbus_space rover team.

It was a great way to get warmed up ready for Monday’s live lesson. Join me virtually from 10.20 am tomorrow.

[Tim Peake @astro_timpeake]

Thanks to @alexjonesthomson and @vernonkay for having me on the @BBC One Show yesterday. Ten years ago I visited the UK for the final time before launch (I was based in Houston at the time) and sat chatting to Alex before heading out to Star City.
This time around I’m firmly based in the UK and excited to be sharing a virtual live lesson from the @sciencemuseum on Monday 15th December.

To join in see the link below and share with someone (schools, teachers, home educators, individuals) who would love to join in 🚀👨‍🚀

Thank you @artistoftheyear for a truly unique experience and huge thank you to the very talented Silas Archibong, El Barrett and Fiona Land who patiently worked away at my craggy visage for hours. I was full of admiration for them, creating portraits under so much time pressure with a live audience and cameras watching every brush and pencil stroke. Which one do you think I chose? You’ll have to watch tonight’s Portrait Artist of the Year on @SkyArts at 8pm to find out …..
