BRITAIN-SCOTLAND-SATELLITES-SPACE

Manufacturing operations manager Daniel Bryce works on a satellite at the offices of US satellite firm Spire Global in Glasgow, south-west Scotland, on April 17, 2018. - A shipbuilding hub since the days of the British empire, the Scottish city of Glasgow is now reaching for the stars with a growing space satellite industry. Glasgow builds more satellites than any city outside of the United States, according to space industry experts, specialising in small "CubeSats" that can be used for anything from weather forecasting to global positioning. Spire's lead engineer Joel Spark said the company had benefited from a high-skilled workforce already in place from the days of the DotCom boom when the area was known as "Silicon Glen".
