Qs: could rings form?
Qs: what to hit next?

A: material may have got stuck in the system leading to a long-lasting tail. As for next targets: top priority is a search telescope, more kinetic impactors to be decided

Issues with using a spacecraft to nudge the orbit of an asteroid: how much debris is created? How long does the debris take to clear?

Yay Comet Chasers and linking to DART + planetary defence. Very cool project that manages to reach multiple audiences in multiple languages

Heartened to hear that nonbinary students especially are feeling more welcomed and ready for university after doing work experience with nonbinary colleagues

Andy Newsam highlighting: talk to your ethics committee at your university beforehand, they can make your evaluation better. Dom Galliano says: build ethics in from the start

Challenges include lack of standards for sonification and issues with dissemination (journals don't know how to handle sonification, people reinvent the wheel)

Sonification & require multi-skilled team including co-creation with BVI people. Girdhar played a sound sample for us with stars - it was really soothing

Next: Tom Killestein with new

Looking at kilonovae. Interesting phenomena but fade within a matter of days. How can we find them fast enough to do meaningful science? Look across the sky with GOTO 👀

If you come to the interdisciplinary panel on the first floor of the CSL today, you can hear me rant more about effective interdisciplinary work. More importantly, I have some FANTASTIC co-panelists working on all sorts of cool stuff with much more interesting insights!

Next: Dr Sadie Jones and Madeline-Mae Ward on black hole

What I like about this is:
- following up with same students
- introduces new scientific language AND new concepts in the humanities
