Present surprise for Nicole

by isleofman.com 28th July 2011

The Manx Astronomical Society turned the tables on astronaut Nicole Stott during her recent visit to the Isle of Man.

Nicole, wife of MannSat boss Chris Stott, and other members of her space shuttle crew made numerous presentations to the Manx government and individuals while she was a guest during National Week - including returning earth from Tynwald Hill which she had taken into space.

However, during a visit to the Isle of Man observatory, a member of the society, Dave Storey, made a presentation to HER of a picture he had taken.

Howard Parkin from the society says it was a lovely idea and Nicole was delighted.
