My last story as a staffer for the BBC. A puzzle that surrounds the end-of-life manoeuvres of the oldest UK satellite still up there - #Skynet1A. Who moved it, when and why? https://t.co/iMhOBBJr4N

The Altar Stone at the heart of Stonehenge stone came from Scotland not Wales as once thought. The discovery has been made by ⁦@anthony__clarke⁩, a proud Welshman who’s now worried that he’ll be disowned by his countrymen as a result! https://t.co/8l0OcDSbwj

Will the rise in larger-scale #farms in the UK see more #cows kept indoors all year round for their productive lives in so-called “megafarms”? And what do consumers think of no graze farming? @BBCNews @BBCr4today https://t.co/XzlLZqknRa

🚨 Personal news: I'm leaving the BBC after a 38-year career. I've seen and done some amazing things; and met some incredible people. It's been an epic privilege to cover the science beat for "Auntie" for three decades. Time to pass the torch. See you on the other side👋

Since early May 2023, every single day has set a new daily ocean temperature record.

It just ended now - an extraordinary streak of 415 days.

A new national park for England - but are they still the crown jewels of the #countryside? @stevebarclay unveils government #nature pledges to @BBCMarshall ahead of #COP28 @BBCNews @BBCBreakfast @BBCr4today https://t.co/kUimdhH2yP

[Rebecca Morelle @BBCMorelle]

A bit of #Bennu! About a teaspoonful of the asteroid has arrived in the UK - it might not sound like much but every tiny grain will be analyzed. We went to see it at @NHM_London - more on @BBCBreakfast (pix by @kc_camera)

My story is pretty straightforward - the UAE planned to use the COP28 climate talks to make oil deals. https://t.co/zK7dkyN1V8

Signs of immunity to #birdflu in some seabirds. Airborne transmission limited. Fewer outbreaks on #farms. #Christmas turkey producers are feeling hopeful - but is this just the calm before the storm? #biosecurity #zoonosis @BBCNews @BBCMarshall @BBCr4today https://t.co/Maq56MrFmc

GO FOR RELEASE! A little bit of asteroid Bennu is set to land in the Utah desert… we’ll be there following it all live it as it descends to Earth #Bennu #OSIRISREx @BBCAmos @alisonfrancis @kc_camera

[Jonathan Amos @JCDAmos]

What's so important about a handful of rocky fragments from #asteroid #Bennu? Just 250g, give or take, are heading towards Earth inside a sealed capsule. The landing is set for Sunday in a remote part of Utah. Dante Lauretta is the @OSIRISREx PI. https://t.co/sXeMNxqurQ

So sorry to hear that one of the creators of Dolly the cloned sheep, Prof Sir Ian Wilmut has died. The breakthrough was arguably on eof the most significant of the 20th century and fraught with controversy. https://t.co/37F9QI558T

From the BBC’s ⁦@MarkerJParker⁩ in Westminster, re Horizon Europe. White smoke seems imminent.

Great to see our 9 month investigation make it to air.

Sign language can describe much more about scientific concepts than English. ⁦@aud2526⁩ & her colleagues added thousands of signs to #BSL so deaf children can learn more about the world

Me and the BBC data team have been following this story for a while. Ocean temperature has been creeping up - now it's broken the all-time record, what does it mean for the planet?
