In an exciting academic milestone, the director of Captiva Recruitment has recently had a paper published in the prestigious Royal Astronomical Society Techniques and Instruments journal. The paper, titled "Building a Low-Budget Planeterrella for Auroral Outreach Incorporating Physics Student Co-Creation Principles", explores the development of a Planeterrella, an innovative device that simulates the Northern Lights and its use in educational outreach initiatives.

The Planeterrella, a captivating tool for demonstrating auroral phenomena, has been adapted to engage students and the public in understanding the physics behind the Northern Lights. The paper outlines how the device was constructed on a modest budget and highlights the role of physics students in co-creating the device, offering them hands-on experience in scientific innovation.
