It was amazing to see all our @DevizesSchool students back today -- so many smiley faces! Not only that, I got to meet our thirteen new Year 12 physicists! Thirteen!

[Mr Maxwell @MaxwellPhysics]

Year 7's first day at @DevizesSchool has gone well -- they all turned out very smart, were fantastically behaved, and when I asked one of my tutor group at the end of today how it went they told me "I had a great day, I loved it!" 😁

More of the same tomorrow, and tutor photos!

The #Artemis I mission to the Moon has been postponed. Teams attempted to fix an issue related to a leak in the hardware transferring fuel into the rocket, but were unsuccessful. Join NASA leaders later today for a news conference. Check for updates: https://t.co/6LVDrA1toy

[Mr Maxwell @MaxwellPhysics]

Second attempt tomorrow evening! 🤞

[NASA @NASA]

Watch #Artemis I launch to the Moon! The broadcast will begin Saturday, Sept. 3, at 12:15pm ET (16:15 UTC) on our Twitter, YouTube, Twitch, Facebook, Daily Motion and https://t.co/ieGQx2G190.

More on how to watch the launch, ask questions and participate: https://t.co/PARh9Hvnk4

[Mr Maxwell @MaxwellPhysics]

Nearly there!

LIVE NOW: The #Artemis era of exploration begins today with @NASAArtemis I, the first flight test of the rocket and spacecraft that will take humanity to the Moon. The launch window opens at 8:33am ET (12:33 UTC). https://t.co/mFyoeRMC6q

[Mr Maxwell @MaxwellPhysics]

At 12.33 on Monday, NASA is sending another mission to the Moon, a dry run for a manned return -- the last time humans we're there was in 1973. More historic events!

Well done to all of the Y11 students at @DevizesSchool! Lots of people who should be incredibly proud of themselves today!

[Mr Maxwell @MaxwellPhysics]

Incredibly proud of my A-level physicists -- they deserve to call themselves nerds now! 😁

[Mr Maxwell @MaxwellPhysics]

Want an easy way to check how hydrated you are? 🚰 It might be gross to think about, but it'll really help you look after yourselves out there in this heat wave. 🌡️ ☀️

[Mr Maxwell @MaxwellPhysics]

Some vertigo inducing scale!

Wow... They didn't disappoint!

This is an image of space that covers the area of a grain of sand, held at arm's length. Incredible.

[NASA @NASA]

It's here–the deepest, sharpest infrared view of the universe to date: Webb's First Deep Field.

Previewed by @POTUS on July 11, it shows galaxies once invisible to us. The full set of @NASAWebb's first full-color images & data will be revealed July 12: https://t.co/63zxpNDi4I

[Mr Maxwell @MaxwellPhysics]

Nearly there!

[NASA @NASA]

UPDATE: One image from @NASAWebb will be previewed today by President Biden at 5:30pm ET (21:30 UTC) ahead of the full set of full-color images & data to be revealed July 12 at 10:30am ET (14:30 UTC): https://t.co/GQefRcrO9e

Images will be posted at: https://t.co/63zxpNDi4I

[Mr Maxwell @MaxwellPhysics]

10pm our time. I cannot wait, these will be incredible!

[NASA @NASA]

We can't contain the excitement for @NASAWebb's first full-color images!

On Monday, July 11 at 5pm ET (21:00 UTC), President Biden will unveil one of the space telescope's first images of deep space as a preview of what's ahead: https://t.co/kP5JdQEpVz

[Mr Maxwell @MaxwellPhysics]

They were absolutely amazing! Fantastic designs, loads of imagination and engineering all day.

Year 10 thoroughly enjoyed their 'Autonomous Vehicle Challenge' STEM day yesterday. Thank you @SmallpeiceTrust . Let's do it again next year! @DevizesSchool @Year10Devizes

Season 2 is set during autumn 1984, well before the release of Metallica's third studio album, Master of Puppets, in March 1986.

Season 4 is set in... March 1986! So in *that* scene from episode 9, Eddie is shredding out a brand new track!

[Mr Maxwell @MaxwellPhysics]

I owe 9B2 an apology. I misremembered the poster in Billy's room. It's for Metallica's debut album from 1983, off which Billy is listening to Metal Militia during this scene (season 2, episode 8). 1/2
