Nice to meetup with @jonathanstilts today, and learn about the cool things he does around STEM education, 3D printing and so much more. Creative, lateral thinking ; helps to do good things in the regions. #digitaliq https://t.co/6ROCxn2hdC

@MarcFennell Damn 😳 must be the luxury of listening to it post-regional-NSW lockdown, being able to listen in my car again it sounds so refreshed and new... like Dr Who regenerated: same-same but ineffably different!

[CNRL Library Innovation Studio @InnovationStew]

We have all-new STEM video workshops to keep children busy these school holidays - watch them now at the top of the full playlist of 60 video workshops! #innovationstew

We've made the local paper!
Rather than cancel #bookweek2021 due to #lockdown we re-imagined it!

I do miss The Rocks sometimes... even though I lived in Glebe, The Rocks feels like home. Knew every nook and cranny.

This #InternationalPicnicDay we'd love to know your favourite picnic spots in #Sydney? 🧺

This dreamy scene @therocks was painted by Roland Wakelin in 1952: https://t.co/hgnBz9aeB4

[Jonathan Stilts @jonathanstilts]

Absolutely NERVE-WRACKING sending these off into the post. They're irreplaceable!

I'm more worried about them arriving to the right place and on time than I am about them being blasted I to space, I'm sure that bit will go without a hitch! 😂🚀💌

[CNRL Library Innovation Studio @InnovationStew]

500 postcards created by our rural and remote library branch communities and friends online are leaving Australia tonight for the USA, and from there to space in July.

🚀 We will keep you updated! 🚀

@claudiajayne_ (lemon juice does the same job as vinegar - difference is, if you use too much lemon juice it doesn't taint the flavour of the egg like vinegar will, it's undetectable)

[Jonathan Stilts @jonathanstilts]

@claudiajayne_ small frypan with water and lemon juice, get the water almost boiling, then turn it off. Don't bother creating a vortex, just crack a few eggs in ever-so-gently so they just sit there. After a minute put bread in toaster. Eggs are done when toast is done!

radio, optical and electronically assisted astronomy, we have someone who was involved in relaying the first Moon Landing footage to the world... oh, and you can ask me anything there too! 😁

My kids stayed up with me for this, we loved the anticipation, the excitement and then the joy in the room from all the scientists and engineers that made it possible!

The little rotorcraft that could.🚁💨

Ingenuity documented its historic ascent today. Here's the #MarsHelicopter's POV during first flight. That's its shadow on the ground below.

#MarsHelicopter my 6 year old Amelia asks: is it true there are no animals on Mars?
