To the robot who turned 90 days into 15 years of exploration:

You were, and are, the Opportunity of a lifetime.

Rest well, rover. Your mission is complete.

@MQPhysAstro delivered icecream treats to all of us the Science Experience on this very hot day....with some science #liquidnitrogenlevelcool

[NISEP @NISEP01]

Awesome Day 1 of the Conocophillips Macquarie Science Experience. Breeding dragons, playing with slime, searching for microplastics. #nisep @MQSciEng

Just chillin' in preparation for an exciting couple of week with @NISEP01

(Pun fully intended)

[Maria Carol @_MissMC_]

I have a new appreciation for everything that @NISEP01 do after my prac experience and the units I took last semester, and am so so excited to be celebrating and facilitating indigenous youth in pursuing STEM careers and engaging with the disciplines I love.

[Maria Carol @_MissMC_]

So if you know a Year 9/10 student interested in STEM who might be up for 3 days of hands-on STEM fun tell them to go check out the program! https://t.co/Ojf1aitn4S - Macquarie program runs next Tues - Thurs

Edutwitter! I've been lucky enough to be involved in the @conocophillips Science Experience through @NISEP01 at @Macquarie_Uni for the past few years and this year I'm far more heavily involved than ever.
We've still got spaces left to register for next week! 1/

[Maria Carol @_MissMC_]

Another one to add to my list of cool #SciCom experiences. Thanks @DoctorKarl

[School of Mathematical and Physical Sciences @Mq_SoMaPS]

What a great night! Thank you @DoctorKarl

A week ago, I said goodbye to my prac placement school. After saying a sad farewell to my students, I left 'my' staffroom with this small token of my thanks: for the support when prac was overwhelming, for the fun atmosphere and jokes, and, ultimately, for making it feel 'mine'.

Fascinating address by Dame Jocelyn Bell Burnell @MQPhysAstro. Truly an exciting time to be watching the skies 🔭

[Maria Carol @_MissMC_]

Today's #prep4prac has left me feeling very excited to start my prac journey in a few days! Thanks @stephygsalazar for making us feel so welcome amongst the #newteachertribe

Note to self: next time traffic almost makes you late try to remember you're in a car you own, on your way to your university where your job is to learn about something you love. Check the privilege and uh...maybe also set your alarm 10 mins earlier.

One of the very cool (pardon the pun!) demos mqmolsci had on display over the last couple days… https://t.co/MCTbFks97B

What I got from my maths assignment: counting cards when shuffling is not as difficult as I thought if you learn to perfectly halve the deck reliably.
What I probably spent too long doing: exactly that.
