and yet more standups in it is rocket science, a pithy, sweet programme about space presented by comedian helen keen, adapted from her 2008 edinburgh show. this is an example of the recent trend among the geekier of standups to show the world that, you know, learning stuff is cool, as long as we keep shovelling in the gags. and it does its job well, with a joke - stuffed script, plus the extremely funny peter serafinowicz, providing the voice of space. the voice insists on referring to
the ooooniverse

more standups in the return of charlie brooker' s so wrong it' s right show on thursday on radio 4. this is a strange show. brooker is a scurrilously witty man, but his humour, like david mitchell' s, lies in his anger. there is no anger in this programme. and although it purports to be about failure – asking its competitors to tell anecdotes about when they' ve made fools of themselves — it' s actually about comedians shoe - horning little bits of their routines on to the radio. in the hope of getting more broadcasting work .

one exception to the flight computer download data requirement is that of the jolly logic 2 [ and any similar lcd only accelerometer flight computer that does not have a data download function, but provides a complete set of flight statistics beyond just peak altitude and speed ]. recorded video of the candidate, their rocket, and then all their jolly logics data outputs on the display can be used as downloaded data. this video link will be posted in the same section as the data download of a conventional downloading flight computer .
the premise of the radio show is that, lacking a big budget, i’ve built my own narrator - the voice of space - a ‘super computer’ (made from an unlikely combination of part of a zx spectrum and various bits of broken kitchen equipment, and somehow imbued with the infallible wisdom of great space show presenters like brian cox, patrick moore, and carl sagan (in a mysterious manner which echoes weird science) ) to help me tell the story of space flight and recreate the voices of various characters. the voice of space is a sort of wonky but affectionate tribute to the space broadcasters i admire – especially the unique vocal stylings of carl sagan - his pronunciation of cosmos definitely inspired oooniverse…

people like me aims to support the recruitment of girls into stem subjects post - 16, particularly those that girls typically do not choose subjects such as physics and engineering. currently physics is the 3rd most popular a - level for boys but only the 19th for girls, and of 14, 000 engineering apprentices, in 2017 only 450 were girls. failing to recruit girls into these areas is not only limiting for the girls (as they miss out on great careers in exciting areas) but also represents a real threat to the uk economy .

last week, radio 4 took us through the now familiar process of established comedians mentoring novices for charidee (you phone in to vote for the best, and the money goes to comic relief). thus, dev from radio 1 was tutored by chris ramsey, radio 2' s tony blackburn got julian clary, tom service (radio 3) by sandi toksvig, jenni murray (radio 4) by mark steele, tony livesey (5live) worked with justin moorhouse and shaun keaveny from 6music was paired with miles jupp. (if there was ever a sign that the bbc are now fully supportive of 6music, shaun doing comic relief is it. )

* * * * “this show was of such a high standard i would be hard pushed to find a show i have been as fully engaged with and liked as much as this one. you come to the fringe to get entertained and there are hundreds and thousands of shows out there to pick from, what helen keen does is become your space obsessed, stamp collecting best friend, she’s honest, smart and funny. a 1st class performance. ”
before we heard the routines, in the
funny
6. 30pm slot on wednesday, radio 4 offered us two half - hour puff pieces on monday and tuesday, where the newbies expressed their fear and competitiveness and their mentors cracked funnies. tony blackburn was the coolest, his shtick so tough that clary' s advice could only slide off it like an egg chucked at a tank. blackburn refused to meet clary more than once, and was as corny as can be, his light - ent persona carrying him through hoary gags such as getting the whole audience to look under their seats for a nonexistent prize. tony livesey was cheesy too, in ye old working men' s club manner: terrible jokes, delivered with a wink and some panache. shaun keaveny was likable, as were jenni murray and tom service. but best by far was dev, who told a truthful, funny, well - constructed story about asking a girl out complete with call - backs to earlier jokes. he should win .

the successful award candidate will submit a recording commercial accelerometer flight computer downloaded data file that substantiates flight faster than mach 1. 0. the candidate will need to show the approximate air pressure and temperature from the launch area and flight level that the mach barrier was broken at and use the math to determine the mach number from the fps, or mph in the downloaded data.
