Space students awarded for hard work by DESC

Three Isle of Man students have been awarded certificates after completing the Virtual Global Space School. 

The scheme, organised by the Foundation for International Space Education, is normally held at the Space School in Texas, but since the pandemic has been held online, this year it challenged students from around the world to plan a mission to an asteroid.

David Cowin, Anna Creegan and Winona Reese Dalugdugan were presented with certificates to mark their achievements by Education Minister Dr Alex Allinson. 

ManSat Group awarded scholarships to the Manx pupils in cooperation with the Department of Education, Sport and Culture and have been doing so for the past 21 years.
