Isle of Man Post Office to send digital stamps to the Moon

The Isle of Man is posting digital stamps to the Moon as part of a 'ground-breaking mission.'

The Island's Post Office says it's part of a project to explore the possibility of space as an ultra-secure, extra-planetary storage location.

Along with Digital Isle of Man, the Post Office will send exclusive digital stamps to the Moon, which will be tracked, creating a digital footprint.

They will then be transmitted back to Earth as part of the lunar exploration programme mission. 

The stamps feature different versions of the Triskelion flag, representing each of the secondary schools on the Island.
