A fantastic week visiting our key ally Australia. Holding discussions to enhance cooperation and interoperability in space, as well as visiting Australian space industry. Thanks to all the great work by @ukinaustralia
Recently, officials observed the latest capability demonstration of the MQ-28 Ghost Bat at Woomera Range Complex that included a test flight, and the opportunity engage with Defence and industry officials working on the project. 🦇

Eighty years ago today, 15 August 1945, the world exhaled in both relief & joy.
After nearly six years of devastation and loss, the War in the Pacific concluded.
We are saddened by the passing of Jim Lovell, commander of Apollo 13 and a four-time spaceflight veteran.
Lovell's life and work inspired millions. His courage under pressure helped forge our path to the Moon and beyond—a journey that continues today. https://t.co/AjT8qmxsZI

The Australian Defence Force recently provided support to the United Kingdom-led @COMUKCSG during a deployment to the Indo-Pacific, under Operation Highmast.
During the deployment, the @AusAirForce's P-8A Poseidon aircraft provided maritime surveillance, while the @Australian_Navy's destroyer HMAS Sydney, integrated with the strike group ahead of @TalismanSabre.

The @RAFBBMF & RAF remembers the late John ‘Paddy’ Hemingway DFC, the last Battle of Britain Pilot, by adding his name to Hurricane LF363, believed to be the last Hurricane to enter service.
On this day in 1918, Lord Trenchard announced the formation of the world’s first independent air force. ✈️
Today, 107 years later, the dedication, professionalism, and innovation that we were founded upon remains the same as we continue to fly and fight.

This week at Avalon I had the opportunity to meet with many counterparts, including the member nations of the Fiver Power Defence Arrangements. It was wonderful to catch up with my colleagues from UK, New Zealand, Malaysia and Singapore.
