Super blood Moon tonight (or early tomorrow morning in Europe) when Earth comes between our Moon and the Sun. The only light reaching the Moon passes through Earth’s atmosphere creating the red/orange glow. #BloodMoon #LunarEclipse #supermoon 📷ESA/CESAR–M.Castillo
What a brilliant afternoon with @SpaceStationE and a packed @RoyalAlbertHall. Thank you @ilaneshkeri and the team for giving us an amazing performance & inviting me to join the fun. Not a bad venue for my stage debut playing the guitar 🤣🎸🌍
And then THIS! Stellar appearance on stage of @astro_timpeake for the closure of the epic @SpaceStationE premiere at the @RoyalAlbertHall!
Something really special happens when space and music collide. Everything sounding incredible for this afternoon’s @SpaceStationE show with @ilaneshkeri. I’m really excited to be a part of it.

Kids first introduction to @Eurovision, mixed response to the whole experience. They liked #Ukraine, #Spain raised some eyebrows 😅 but they lost the will to carry on at #Lithuania…. has been a useful geography lesson though 🙌.
