For the second time in a month, a Manx company is working with American space agency NASA.
After lenses made in Onchan landed on Mars with the Curiosity Rover, the Space Data Association has signed a deal with NASA to share satellite information.
Based on the Island, the SDA holds a huge database of satellite positions and orbits to help operators avoid interference or collisions.
Company secretary Ian Jarritt says the deal will encourage others to sign up to the project:
Plans submitted for 'significant' flood defences in Ramsey
Tributes paid to cancer awareness campaigner
Police bail for two people arrested in Ramsey incident
WCAS to extend opening hours next month
Government support for two 'long-stalled' Douglas developments
