The Isle of Man has been named the 5th most likely nation to put the next man on the moon.

Ascend, one of the space industry's leading analyst firms, produce a list of space super powers, based on the probability of them returning to the moon.

Only the United States, Russia, China and India were ranked ahead of the Island in the "Space Intelligence Report".

The Department of Economic Development hopes this ranking will lead to more investment in the Isle of Man's space industry.
