In WWII, RAL saw Spitfires roar overhead its predecessor RAF Harwell. Now, it’s a hub for science innovation. Keep an eye out for more content that puts our science in its historical context and more! 🔎#STFCInContext

Summer has been great for orchids at RAL! Here you can see the Bee Orchid, the Common Spotted Orchid, and the Pyramidal Orchid. Fun Fact: The Bee Orchid mimics a female bee, tricking males into pollinating it! STFC manages our grasslands to foster these beautiful species.
