Students who are interested in space are being urged to apply for a place at a NASA United Space School.
The Department of Education and Children and the ManSat Group are offering scholarship places at the school in Houston in Texas in July.
Since 2000 30 students from the Isle of Man have attended the school spending two weeks working alongside their peers from around the world to plan a simulated manned mission to Mars.
They're supported in their quest by NASA astronauts, engineers and scientists.
The opportunity is open to all Year 12 students - to enter they must compose three essays by January 12th; full details can be found here.
