People enjoying the great outdoors on the Island this weekend are again being asked to keep their eyes open for part of a missing rocket.

The Black Streak was launched from Scotland ten days ago by a group of students and academics from the Bolton Science and Technology Centre.

It's thought it reached a height of over 60,000 feet, breaking the United Kingdom record for an amateur rocket, but the team has been unable to locate the top section of the device.

The upper section contains the instruments which could confirm whether the record has been broken.
Last weekend there was a report that the black-tipped orange tube, with attached flotation device and parachute, had been spotted at the Poyll Dooey nature reserve in Ramsey, but it disappeared before it could be retrieved.

It's thought it could have been carried out again by the tides, and the team which launched it is again asking people on the Island to keep their eyes open.

The section could still be floating in the sea, or washed up on a beach.
