The UK’s flagship research vessel, the brand new RRS Discovery, will be moored in London this week to celebrate NERC’s (Natural Environment Research Council) 50th anniversary. It’s a really exciting event, and all the details can be found here.

Perhaps most exciting of all, my lovely other half and I will be ‘science busking’ on the South Bank on Saturday afternoon between 11:00 and 14:00. We’ll be doing some fun scienc-y activities and chatting about the science we do – marine renewable energy, oceanography and more. So stop by for a chat if you’re in London – we’d love to see you there!
