We’re at the @sciencemuseum to see a full-size replica of @VirginOrbit’s LauncherOne rocket that will launch from @SpaceCornwall. 🚀

Come see the rocket for yourself, plus enjoy loads of free exciting space-themed events! 🪐 🌕🌎

"It's real. It's here."

After eight years of planning, the first ever space launch from British soil is almost upon us

A Virgin Orbit jet arrived in Cornwall from the United States last night to rapturous applause and tears of joy https://t.co/6W7czUugyT

Looking good, Jupiter!

Like Earth, this giant planet has northern and southern lights called aurorae.

You can see them near Jupiter’s north and south poles, as observed in ultraviolet by Hubble (left) and infrared by @NASAWebb (right): https://t.co/buRNFiC1NU

Lots of arguments today over AP vs Chicago vs Wing It style. Makes me think of AP OG @brycedub Weigh in:

.@united lost my infant's car seat and the only loaner available was Canadian without any awareness that this actually illegal to use in the US? (In addition to the fact that it was missing key safety parts) unacceptable.

7/7 And smart climate orgs know that the key to winning is to SHAPE public opinion -- not just follow it.

[Jessica Reis @jess4twins]

6/7 The question isn't if voters care about climate or not -- it's how do we link climate to voters' concerns. BIG opportunity here to talk about how clean energy will reduce costs, make us less dependent on expensive oil and gas, build $$ jobs of the future, and more.

[Jessica Reis @jess4twins]

4/7 Most polls (including ours at @BPIMedia) show that when you ask climate in a list, it’s a top-2 concern of 20-30% of voters (close to 40% among younger). And YouGov’s July poll shows 43% of US adults believe climate change/enviro is very important (68% total important)

Jake Tapper: "One doesn’t have to be brilliant to attempt a coup."

John Bolton: "I disagree with that. As somebody who has helped plan coup d’etat, not here, but other places, it takes a lot of work."
