@jimalkhalili @LucyT_journo Well done Jim 🏆 My ambition is to shake your hand one day and thank you personally 🤝🏼 I have been consuming your content in its myriad forms since I was a little girl ~20 years ago. You, @helenczerski , and @ProfBrianCox ignited my obsession with science 🔭🧪🧬🌕🚀

Lights off, eyes up 🌍✨

This Earth Hour, switch off your non-essential lights for one hour and give the night sky a chance to shine.
On March 28, from 8:30 PM to 9:30 PM local time, people around the world will take part in this symbolic moment for the planet.

Earth Hour is more than just turning lights off — it’s a reminder to be more mindful of how we use energy and how even small actions can help protect our world. And for skywatchers, it’s also a perfect time to step outside, look up, and enjoy a darker, starrier sky.

Tonight, let’s celebrate our planet by dimming the lights and reconnecting with the universe above us. 💙🌌

@ProfBrianCox @YouTube I reported several of them for dis/misinformation yday when I saw your tweet. There are subtle cues that it's not really you, like the way its "voice" pronounces some words and the way its "face" doesn't move the way yours does (not a stalker; just watched your progs many times).

I don't tend to post much on X these days, but I thought I would let my UK followers know that I have a new TV offering: a 2-part Horizon special on BBC2 going out on 29th Sep and 6th October. It is called Secrets of the Brain. See https://t.co/myZwienlHw

🌕✨ All You Need to Know: Total Lunar Eclipse (Blood Moon) — Sept 7–8, 2025⁠
⁠
What: Earth’s shadow will turn the Moon a deep red — a classic Blood Moon.⁠
⁠
When: Night of Sept 7–8. Totality lasts ~17:30–18:52 GMT, with partial/penumbral phases before and after.⁠

How to watch (no special gear needed):⁠

🚀✨ Yes, the Apollo astronauts walked on the Moon… but they also hopped, bounded, shuffled — and, yep — fell. A lot. ���🌕

In low gravity, even the best-trained astronauts had their balance tested. For the engineers who designed the suits, these wipeouts were nerve-wracking. For the rest of us, they’re just a reminder that even heroes have clumsy moments.

So if you need a laugh today, enjoy this hilarious supercut of Moon tumbles — brought to you by history, science, and 1/6th Earth gravity.

I’m very proud to announce my new series #Scandinavia
will start on @BBCTwo on 18th May … and on @BBCiPlayer of course.
It’s Sweden, Denmark, Norway, and what I’m calling ‘the wider Nordic family’ — Finland and Iceland as well.
From Svalbard in the very far north down to southern Denmark… 3 huge journeys.
Thanks to the wonderful team inc @TheGardenTV who made it possible, and the brilliant Scandis we met along the way.
