I’m gonna simply say this: if you are at all interested in a Stargate show with ANY of the original creators/performers involved, now is the time to say something. Otherwise it really will be the end of that chapter forever. Let them know you are THERE

Science done on the ISS directly benefits other missions like #ExoMars, we have to be very careful with our electrical system as a fire would be catastrophic #NewScientistLive https://t.co/brm7Wj4ebb

The ExoMars rover we send to Mars will be called Rosalind Franklin. She was an amazing scientist, find out more about her here: https://t.co/cjuXR7o9qQ #NewScientistLive

It will take ExoMars 9 months of travel through space to get to Mars from Earth #NewScientistLive https://t.co/VgyAziFlK2

I have been answering some amazing and difficult questions from the young generation at #NewScientistLive. I think our future is bright :) #STEMeducation

[Graham Kirkby @GrahamKirkby]

Here at #NewScientistLive again today, come and ask any questions you have about the ExoMars rover!

[Graham Kirkby @GrahamKirkby]

#3 Bridget is very similar in size to the rover we will send to Mars. She weights approximately 220kg! #NewScientistLive

[Graham Kirkby @GrahamKirkby]

2# Bridget is battery powered but the rover sent to Mars will used both batteries and solar panels #NewScientistLive

[Graham Kirkby @GrahamKirkby]

#1 The rover we have with us at #NewScientistLive today is Bridget, our very first prototype Mars rover!

[Graham Kirkby @GrahamKirkby]

I will answer some frequently asked questions here too, so you don't miss out on the ExoMars rover #NewScientistLive @AirbusSpace

[Graham Kirkby @GrahamKirkby]

Great questions from the general public today at #NewScientistLive about the ExoMars rover!

[Graham Kirkby @GrahamKirkby]

I'm at the ESA stand @newscientist live today! Come and ask me about the ExoMars rover! @AirbusSpace
