Ieuan Gale

Writer/qualitative researcher and aspiring softball coach. Trying to juggle 2 very different lives at the same time! 🎓🥎

[Ieuan Gale @GaleIeuan]

Been such a great experience working for a company at the cutting edge of the sport!

[Driveline Softball @DrivelineSB]

Originally from the UK and now coaching in the US, @GaleIeuan joined the Bet On Me Fellowship at Driveline Softball this summer.

He comes from the men's fastpitch game where it's still touch and feel. I did this so you should do this. He came here because he wanted to know what the data actually says.

Good data doesn't have an accent. It just tells the truth.

9 months of hard work came to fruition in 🇨🇿 last month, as I competed with 🇬🇧 at the European Championship.
I had my best tournament yet on the field, and was an honour to captain the side too.
Always a pleasure to continue my passion 🥎

[Ieuan Gale @GaleIeuan]

Another great trip to America coaching and learning from the best!
Hoping to coach in America one day, this trip was an excellent opportunity for me to continue developing as a softball coach and expanding my knowledge from some of the best in the game

The artillery duels and trench warfare are straight out of WWI, and yet much of the Ukrainian artillery fire is now being spotted by drones and adjusted on tablet computers. It feels like a mash-up of “All Quiet on the Western Front” and “Blade Runner.”https://t.co/umPLHXZsUc

[Ieuan Gale @GaleIeuan]

A problem of increasing severity, alas not a priority for most ... a very cool photo though!

[Astroscale UK & Europe @Astroscale_UK]

Thanks to @BBCNews for sharing our world first image of space debris captured through RPO on our ADRAS-J mission.

Read on to find out how ADRAS-J has been supported by Astroscale UK, sharing round-the-clock mission control between Tokyo and Harwell 👇

Interesting additional info on this:
- this would have been UN Security Council's first ever resolution on outer space
- China and Russia tabled an amendment that called for a ban on all weapons in space for all time, but this failed to reach the required 9 votes to be adopted

[Ieuan Gale @GaleIeuan]

Worrying from Russia and China not supporting this ... particularly in aftermath of reports in February that Russia is developing technology to put a nuclear weapon in space ... makes my MA thesis seem ever more real ... https://t.co/2RnRgUoh7C

[Tom Thornhill @Thornhilltp]

🇺🇸 6-2 🇬🇧 What a performance! We have come to play and @GB_Baseball belong at the #WorldBaseballClassic

Fantastic to have @GaleIeuan here from @BritishSoftball 🥎 to share this huge moment for all three sports 🙌

[British Softball Federation @BritishSoftball]

BSF President @GaleIeuan represented British Softball at the @WBSCEurope Congress on 10-11 February in Serbia - read the Federation's report on the two-day event: https://t.co/hdy4zieaMN

[John Boyd @boydy11]

Another @WBSCEurope Congress in the books. The sports are now completely together in one European family. Thank you to everyone who put in a great amount of work to make this Congress happen.

With news surfacing in recent days about the latest Russian #spaceweapon test destroying a satellite, it seems like perfect timing for my #warstudies dissertation

In partnership with the KCL ARRC scheme, it explores #NATO's historical involvement in space and NATO's future role

[IISS News @IISS_org]

Global defence spending is on the up, despite the economic crunch caused by the pandemic, new #MilitaryBalance figures show. But this increase could slow in 2021 as the defence budget of the US flattens and growth in Asia-Pacific slows, writes @FMcGerty | https://t.co/OevDQ6c9Mw

[Ieuan Gale @GaleIeuan]

@peterwsinger Fantastic I shall be sure to pick that one up as well!

[Ieuan Gale @GaleIeuan]

Just finished reading this. Both an excellent read & a great example of how fiction can be used by academics to engage people around the world with issues in all fields, not just military and security related. Surely this should be the aim for all, no matter the topic #ghostfleet

[Ieuan Gale @GaleIeuan]

What a moment! A ground breaking event that will change the space industry and how we operate in space forever. Could also have profound affects on the growing militarisation of space. #SpaceX #space #tesla #NASA #future https://t.co/v8X22gpjzs

[Ieuan Gale @GaleIeuan]

The militarisation of space is a topic I am becoming increasingly interested in. As the is stated in this article's final section "space is for all but there is a risk that it is being hijacked by a few" #Space #defence #Russia #warfare

[Chatham House @ChathamHouse]

Despite Russia’s calls for a treaty to prevent the placement of weapons in outer space, the US claims that Russia tested a space-based anti-satellite weapon earlier in July.

@beyzaunal and @MatBoulegue explain why it's time to reinforce responsible state behaviour in outer space

[Ieuan Gale @GaleIeuan]

Fascinating look at how some countries can achieve their goals through more subtle means than purely military force

[CSIS @CSIS]

Russia is politically influencing Montenegro through the exploitation of the Orthodox faith, Pan-Slavic identity, and economics. https://t.co/4LzwSlGnrf

[Ieuan Gale @GaleIeuan]

@Sam_Cranny Hmm interesting!
