@CapeWrathUltra @NoLimitsPhotog1 Ahm, isn't this Glenfinnan (Camp 1)?

[Alien Astro Dad @mat_jaeger]

@CapeWrathUltra Runners are very lucky with the weather! Fingers crossed!

@astro_hsd Cause English people don't want you to enjoy Scotland as they fear you could stay there. While the Scots are just nice :D

[Alien Astro Dad @mat_jaeger]

@LeoBurtscher @guardian @peterdutoit I guess that depends on your working area. A low overlap might work in most science projects, in the fast paced environment of a press office things are (too) often happening on an hourly basis.

@AstroZwerge Viel Spaß. Ich nutze meinen Urlaub erstmal für die neue Saturn V.

@karoda42 @MikeRennison @womenpostingws That's the accretion disc.

@vicgrinberg @AstroVictorSee I explicitly said "I don't doubt" ;)
Science communication tells us that to transport a message it only matters to 7% what you say, but to 38% how you say it. Hence I teach scientists to carefully prepare their talks & key messages. It's good to hear it also works differently.

[Alien Astro Dad @mat_jaeger]

@vicgrinberg @AstroVictorSee Not doubting your skills in any way but have you ever checked if the key points you want to transport are reaching your audience?
