Students head to virtual space school

Locally-based ManSat has arranged for three students to take part in a virtual space school.

David Cowin, Anna Cregeen and Winona Reese Dalugdugan won the annual competition to take part in the annual event which runs July 24 until August 8. 

It's the second of its kind to be held digitally due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

ManSat has sponsored i

sland sixth-form students to travel to Houston since 2000.

ManSat’s Chief Technical Officer, Jennifer Stone said: "This virtual gathering should be a wonderful experience for Anna, Winona, and David, and we are sure they will be excellent representatives of the Isle of Man.

"We are hopeful Space School will be back to its in-person format in Houston for 2022".
