If life swims in Europa’s ice-capped ocean, how could we see it from space? A combination of cryovolcanism and lipid-preserving salts.

Okay: here’s everything you need to know about the new eruption in Iceland, including what is certain, what is uncertain, and all that jazz.
(I’ve got a few weeks of book leave left, but couldn’t leave y’all hanging.)

This image from today's IPCC synthesis report is brutal. The existing policy trajectory represents a profound failure of our governments, and of our international political system. We need much more aggressive mitigation and much stronger international cooperation.
In the 1970s, Dutch cities like Amsterdam were full of traffic and air pollution.
Now they are models of sustainable urban planning.
Here's the story of how the Netherlands started building their cities for humans, not cars.

❄️🌒Icy moons research job alert!🌒❄️
I'm looking for a PDRA to come and work with me to explore the potential diversity of salty ices in and on the ice shell of Europa (+ other icy moons!)
Get in touch if you're interested!

When your brother sends you a sunset photo from New Zealand and you send a sunrise photo from Scotland and you realise you’re looking at two sides of the same sun from opposite ends of the world.
