How long does it take to lift Tower Bridge?

This British Science Week, we're exploring the theme of time, and so it seemed like the perfect opportunity to look at a Tower Bridge Lift ⛵

Had a fantastic time at the Southampton Science and Engineering Festival yesterday demonstrating different types of volcanic products and eruptions to the public 🌋 #SOTSEF #BSW24

My sticker journey continues.....stickers still not here, and now find out everyone else stickers are 4cm not 2cm like I was told #stickergate but I do love the Henry Royce Institute materials passport! More materials fun tomorrow at Manchester Museum for #BSW24

Here's Dr Comina celebrating #BSW24 with a outdoor lunchtime display of some exciting chemical reactions. The elephant's toothpaste was spectacular!

Climate models show simulations of our present and future #climate . With increased computer power the level of detail has increased significantly, from a model with ~1800 grid boxes about 20 yrs ago to a state-of-the-art model using ~780,000 grid boxes 👇 #BSW24

Time is British Science Week 2024's theme! How would you define time? Is your definition similar to Aristotle's, Newton's or Einstein's? Find out as theoretical physicist Carlo Rovelli reveals how definitions have changed over the ages. Join RI Family Membership today! #BSW24

How fast does a Typhoon fly?

Olivia, an engineer in the Royal Air Force, shares just a few facts about the cutting-edge aircraft ✈️

Thanks to British scientists & engineers, the powerful fighter jet remains ready to protect the skies at a moment’s notice.

Slowing things down for #BritishScienceWeek ...watch an oak beauty moth take flight at 9300fps (that's 310x slower than real life!)

The high-tech camera is allowing our scientists to analyse insect flight behaviour and the spread of fungal pathogens

Great event at Institute for Sustainable Food with The Food Foundation today.

We heard from The University of Sheffield academics about their innovations to tackle food inequality.

Thank you to our speakers for helping us shine a light on this centre of excellence and Abtisam Mohamed for coming.

Honoured to have led #britishscienceweek for the Faculty of STHS St Mary's University - Huge thanks to all staff, PlatoScience and Magstim TMS Therapy for the inspiring demonstrations and to Orleans Park School Waldegrave School for the brilliant engagement and participation! #BSW24 #STEM

From Marie Curie to Isaac Newton and Ada Lovelace to Oppenheimer - we owe a lot to the scientists of the past! We asked some of our scientists at UKHSA who they'd love to meet if they could go back in time ⌚👩‍🔬👨‍🔬

Do you know how much the UK #climate has changed since #BritishScienceWeek started 30 years ago?

This graph shows how our UK annual mean temperature has evolved 👇

Half of the 30 years since 1994 have beaten the UK’s warmest year on record at that time (1990). #BSW24 🧵1/2…

Kathleen M. Robinson volunteered, like so many other women, as a Fire Warden with the Civil Defence during WW2. In her day-to-day life she worked as an Analytical Chemist for the Premier Oil Extracting Mills at Stoneferry. #BSW24 #SmashingStereotypes

We're playing around with the theme of 'time' for this year's #BritishScienceWeek , in this time-lapse you can clearly see why diamondback moths are sometimes referred to as the cabbage moth...
