From its closest distance to its furthest distance from the Moon, #Artemis1 keeps sharing incredible images. It recently broke the Apollo 13 record for the farthest distance from Earth for a spacecraft designed to carry humans into deep space.
2Wondered why the water in my new @esa water bottle tasted a bit dodgy the last couple of days - only to find some very mushy instructions at the bottom.
Do we really need a procedure for EVERYTHING! How complicated can a water bottle be? 😂
Brilliant audience in Cardiff last night & I got to meet a fantastic group of Scouts from all over Wales. Huge thanks to their volunteer leaders too. Great to see so many smiling faces & so much enthusiasm for space/STEM.
Next stop Darlington Hippodrome.

Feeling a bit guilty …. earlier today I left the family at a very muddy worksite & I arrived in Wales to sunshine☀️🏴. Next stop Cardiff’s @theCentre for tonight’s #myjourneytospace.
