And yesterday the gorgeous view of Delft from the New Church!

Cool thing about having a guest from Brazil, I get to rediscover my own city. Today: Delft blue pottery

and of course pinhole camera should be pinhole projector... why is it not possible to edit a tweet? 😅

[Robin de Kruijff @RobinKruijff]

Science is cool! We just made our own pinhole camera (with a hole puncher and piece of cardboard) to project the eclipse on a piece of paper!!

Well I guess I have to say Dr. Chao now, great defense!

[Robin de Kruijff @RobinKruijff]

Chao had just given a very nice overview of his thesis work on the application of MOFs for radionuclide production, getting ready to defend his thesis!

The skyline of Delft was absolutely gorgeous last night

[Robin de Kruijff @RobinKruijff]

It was absolutely fascinating to see how huge everything aboard the Pioneering Spirit is! For example with the front of the ship they can lift and transport an entire drilling platform!

[Robin de Kruijff @RobinKruijff]

Quite a bit boat

[Robin de Kruijff @RobinKruijff]

Had to get up way early for a Saturday morning but super excited for the upcoming tour of the #PioneeringSpirit

WATCH 👀: This test reactor at @INL produces sudden bursts of energy that are five times more powerful than a nuclear power plant to test fuels under extreme conditions.

[Robin de Kruijff @RobinKruijff]

Great highlight on the importance of nuclear medicine!

[Robin de Kruijff @RobinKruijff]

Tune in to Nederland 1 this evening at 18:17!📺

My colleague Antonia Denkova will be featured on the program EenVandaag about the importance of research into the production of medical isotopes.

#DidYouKnow the first demonstration showing that an atomic chain-reaction could be self-sustaining took place in a squash court underneath the football stadium at @UChicago? The experiment, directed by Enrico Fermi, was called CP-1 or Chicago Pile-1. #ManhattanProject

They are also cultivating native plants at the site, to help nature bounce back faster!

[Robin de Kruijff @RobinKruijff]

Visited the old uranium mine in Caldas, Brazil last week. Fascinating to hear about their mining and subsequent cleanup and environmental monitoring activities! https://t.co/aaGCRpW2um

[Robin de Kruijff @RobinKruijff]

This is the on-site water cleanup system, where they take the polluted and acidic water at the site and turn it back into clean water
