Mad #StarTrek60 evening at the #SMLates Science Museum. Culminating in those of us who dressed up doing a catwalk in front of cheering people. Which was frankly utterly terrifying.

In a moment of utter astonishment to me, I was voted 3rd best costume of the evening.

Live Long and Prosper!

Had a blast talking about the physics behind the Northern Lights, and the work @ukspaceagency.bsky.social is doing on space weather, at #SMLates last night. @sciencemuseumldn.bsky.social

In September, back in England, we joined Lates Night at the #ScienceMuseum, playing the BLAST game. Back in the lab, we continued our carbon sequestration experiments in collaboration with a visiting professor from Malaysia and the #biophysics team at @rothamsted.bsky.social #SMLates

Christmas Lates | Science Museum We’re decking the halls and getting in the Christmas spirit, so prepare to eat, drink, be merry and a whole lot more at the Science Museum’s first ever festive edition of Lates.

Going to the Science Museum's #SMLates?

Be sure to catch our Exploration Science Manager, Dr Natalya Zavina-James and Senior Project Manager for the Axiom Space UK Mission, Liz Johns, who will be giving a talk about Christmas on the ISS. 🎄 🛰️

We spent Halloween at the London Science Museum after dark, uncovering stories from the history of Computing. Topics included Babbage, Lovelace, LEO and quantum encryption. #SMLates #exabits

Fascinating discussion last night at #Smlates of how AI can't be trusted with nuclear weapons, at a @sciencemuseum event backed by @EPSRC blog.sciencemuseumgroup.org.uk/ai-cant-be-t...

Rodrigo is all set up for #SMLates at the @sciencemuseum with #UNESCOintheUK helping support @HistoricEngland with virtual #ProtectedWreck access. Go find him on the second floor and have a virtual dive!

Good #SMLates tonight – and by good, I mean it made me eat 18 pieces of dark chocolate for an experiment and decorate and eat a biscuit for some tenuous internet cookie-related reason. #freefood

Time for a food-themed #SMLates! (at @ScienceMuseum in South Kensington, Greater London) https://www.swarmapp.com/c/gbVpFDlDLFb

I've just been to a very weird play at the @sciencemuseum. Came out it was written by an AI named Benjamin. #smlates #ArtificialIntelligence

#SMLates time! (at @ScienceMuseum in South Kensington, Greater London) http://4sq.com/1p2yXUO

Boomwhackers

Now learning about the science of music - with boomwhackers - from #SMLates' @connellycharlie https://flic.kr/p/nrRoAk

Harri's shaker

Also at #SMLates, a chance to make musical instruments incl polystyrene maracas. @HG_Harper's: https://flic.kr/p/nan1jG

Steel drums

…Which was nice until an audience idiot said they should be called The Man Haters because "statistically 50% of you should be men"! #SMLates

Punk Science

Tonight's Punk Science has a brass dectet - all women. #SMLates https://flic.kr/p/npLVcd

Punk Science has had a venue upgrade since I was last at #SMLates (@ Science Museum (IMAX)) http://4sq.com/1pPnMxY

Hooray, the 52 bus has carried @HG_Harper & me to #SMLates! (at @ScienceMuseum w/ 5 others) http://4sq.com/1mZMee1

I appear not to have changed onto the Victoria train, so I guess I'm not going to #smlates - oh well...

OK Twitter: do I spend about 45min at the last #smlates at which my Sci Mus membership's valid, or not bother? 15min to decide! #trainchange

First #SMLates since Oct tonight, but I'm sticking to SbC. Sci Mus hasn't responded to or resolved my membership-related complaints in 4wks!

Ooh is @sciencemuseum public sector & affected by strike? If so, my opinion of there being no #smlates tomorrow just did a 180° turn :) #N30

Just been on the Red Arrows simulator with @DawnHFoster at #SMLates. We took our earlier-pictured draught excluders: SNAKES ON A PLANE!

Back on the 89, heading into the office to do some actual work. But then meeting @DawnHFoster for #SMLates later - anyone else I know going?

In basement of Science Museum, @minibeastgirl & I saw a Cybermat (or possibly earthly equivalent) scuttle along the skirting board! #SMLates

Level of proper sciency nerdiness in the basement at #SMLates sci-fi talk contrasted very well with the YouTube party down there last month!

Ducking out of PPQ was a good decision as we then caught a good talk on science fiction in computer games by a PhD student instead. #SMLates

Ping Pong quiz teams were randomly assigned. When I turned up, mine was all male. I thought I was going to be on @MockTheWeek ;) #SMLates

Apparently my team is in the lead, or something. Baffling. #SMLates

Playing weak game called Ping Pong Quiz Show at #SMLates. Can't hear Qs and my team's buzzing in with a thing that takes ages to make sound!
