Welcome to Core Questions, the brand new podcast from the British Geological Survey that uncovers how geology shapes our world. In this first episode, remote sensing geoscientist Alessandro Novellino explains how different types of satellites work, what kind of data they collect and how we use that information to study our planet. Plus, we’ll settle the ultimate question: could a satellite see you waving down on Earth? 🎧 Listen now: https://ow.ly/o72h50VuBSN | British Geological Survey

The Carrington Event, which occurred nearly 200 years ago in 1859, affected telegraph systems across the world and created aurora displays as far as the equator. We hold the original magnetogram from the event in our collections, which shows the storm's raw geomagnetic data 🧲 | British Geological Survey

Our new science strategy identifies maps and models as a key focus area going forward. We aim to deliver a new programme of systematic 2D and 3D geological survey for the UK, targeting strategic priorities onshore and across our continental shelf. | British Geological Survey

For more than a century, data collected at Eskdalemuir has shaped our understanding of the planet and laid the groundwork for today's research into space weather, Earth systems, and long term environmental change 🌍 #geomagnetism #spaceweather #geoscience #earthscience #geology | British Geological Survey
