Went hiking though the mountains. Came across a piece of quartz that looked foreign to the region. Dug it out of the trail and to my delight it had a specimen number glued to it. WHAT LEGEND IS TAKING THEIR ROCK COLLECTION FOR A WALK!?

So many rocks to talk about

[Shu Ezackial @jrezack]

Stoked to find ex-work pal @JoeFayle doing what he does best - talking about rocks. Specifically the rocks of @ParlHouseCBR! Thanks @GeoscienceAus and @ScienceAU #SMP2023

[Dr Sarah Kachovich @SarahKachovich]

Ahhhh-mazing geology tour in & around Parliament House by @VeetheRockChick & Joe @GeoscienceAus for #SMP2023

You would think with all these impressive rocks surrounding our policymakers, that enabling the Earth sciences would be higher on the national agenda ;p

[Geoscience Australia @GeoscienceAus]

Our role is much more than studying rocks & minerals.

From earthquake monitoring & earth observation to uncovering the low-emission fuels of our future, Earth sciences impacts the lives of all Australians.

Get up to speed with all things glass this National #ScienceWeek

[Geoscience Australia @GeoscienceAus]

Hey Google, what is glass made of and how is it created in the natural world? Our new digital exhibition – Glass: the old, the new, the natural, has all the answers 👉 https://t.co/xT0gNehVJ8!

Teamed up with @amymdennis to create this video for National #ScienceWeek. Make sure to click the link to see the full version!

[ACT Public Schools @ACTEducation]

National Science Week (13 - 21 August) is Australia’s annual celebration of science & technology! Our Academy of Future Skills has worked with the Geoscience Australia Education Program to explore this year’s theme of glass. Watch the full vid: https://t.co/uWvaTfiPST.

[Joe Fayle @JoeFayle]

Hey Twitter friends come listen to me talk about amazing natural glass for #ScienceWeek

[Geoscience Australia @GeoscienceAus]

Join us for our National #ScienceWeek public talk! We'll explore how dramatic natural events like lightning strikes, volcanic eruptions & meteorite impacts can produce glass. We find beautiful evidence of this here on Earth, & on the Moon 🔍 https://t.co/EILPrC83Vx! [11am 17 Aug]

I convinced 43 Yr10 students to stomp out We Will Rock You and recorded it on our seismograph. #Queen @GeoscienceAus

[Australian Academy of Science @Science_Academy]

The latest report on what we can do about climate change is here. There is a way out of the worst of this mess, but we must act now. #climatechangeaction #IPCCreport

@sandramcgeo @SciMelb This sounds great 👏

Something old and something new from this weekend's field trip. #woolshedcreek @jodgeez

Lady walking past my fence, peering through my window, makes eye contact, yells: "I LOVE THE DECORATIONS IN YOUR HOUSE!"

@Kaya_M_Wilson Can confirm

[Dr. Kaya Wilson @Kaya_M_Wilson]

Good summary of the geophysical events in the #TongaHunga #Tongaeruption over the last few days.

Field tripping in the ACT with the @GeoSocAustralia

[Joe Fayle @JoeFayle]

Feeling like there's been a lot happening recently? Well, Birdie is here to help!

A great multilingual #DisasterResilienceEducation resource for the early learners, and maybe even older folk as well!

And well done to the 35,000+ Aussies submitting 'Felt Reports' That's 35,000+ citizen scientists doing their bit! Science done together = a better future.

[Geoscience Australia @GeoscienceAus]

The Mansfield VIC earthquake has been adjusted to 5.9 (Mw). A 4.0 (Mw) aftershock was recorded 15 minutes after the initial event. GA senior seismologist Jonathan Bathgate says that frequent aftershocks may be felt across SE 🇦🇺. Fill a felt report.👉 https://t.co/7FHfgUNeR6

[Joe Fayle @JoeFayle]

If you felt it, report it at https://t.co/J4X24J7zrm (click on the 'Felt Report') #earthquake

[Joe Fayle @JoeFayle]

Felt it in Canberra too!

[Sandra McLaren @sandramcgeo]

Earthquake in Melbourne just now? Omg! #geology @DeeNinis ??
