Not all water tastes the same - and geology has a lot to do with it 💧 In our latest podcast episode, we aim to answer a controversial question: Where in the UK has the best tasting water? We chat with BGS hydrogeochemist Pauline Smedley as well as water sommelier Milin Patel to explore the science of flavour, minerals, and hard vs soft water - plus a bottled water taste test!

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

Our science is global, and so is our team 🌍 This International Mother Language Day, some of our scientists are sharing how we explore, understand, and protect the planet – in the first languages they learned. | British Geological Survey
