How can tiny amounts of gas produced by cosmic rays inside grains of sand give clues about Australia’s ancient landscapes?

Researchers at our Uni, #Curtin & #Köln demonstrated a new method to reconstruct how ancient landscapes eroded and sediments moved across continents millions of years ago. Find out about the cosmic clock in tiny crystals: https://www.uni-goettingen.de/en/3240.html?id=8063

@abcfeeds the lack of oversight and control of federal government spending for something that no one believes will be delivered but you should believe we are going to have foreign (UK/USA) #nuclear subs in our ports is disgusting. We are paying for those Bastards to store their threats to us here. #albanesedonothing is no #curtin. #auspol

Bargaining time again between #Curtin management and the #NTEU.

They've had 4 formal meetings, and management hasn't even deigned to outline what its own positions are, or could be, or responded meaningfully to the union's positions. Some of the key managers have gone on leave during these "negotiations" without delegating their responsibilities, a fact that the union was asked not to discuss.

The cynicism, and the transparent sabotage of the process, is breathtaking.

Management, why are you even here? Some of us lowly academics and professional staff are trying to run a university. Not you, apparently.

If you live in and around #TownofVicPark and are looking for a fun indoor activity with younger kids tomorrow afternoon, consider Wirlomin Stories After School Storytelling Sessions!

So, #ALP (Penny Wong and Anthony Albanese)
Q: What's it to be? Support a Fascist United States or support the UN?

Remember the UN? The body Curtin, Chifley and Evatt did so much to bring into being. Holder of the rules? You remember, the 'Rules' part of the International Rules Based Order? Yeah, them.

(Spoiler They'll piss happily on Curtin's grave if Trump demanded another golden shower.)

During today’s test, the whole room was vibrating the whole time because of construction work. I absolutely detest the new computer labs, every single time I go in, there is something annoying. During one of my tests last year there was a loud beeping noise going off constantly. They decided for some reason to make the 5 classrooms all connected which makes for terrible noise isolation and a really distracting learning environment. I imagine they chose to do it to save money on tutors (all rooms connected means less tutors needed per class). Just absolutely annoying.
Just a welcome post for all my #WritingOnTheWeb students in semester 2, 2024 here at #Curtin
