Scotland launches space mission

GLASGOW, Scotland - 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, specializing in small "CubeSats" that can be used for anything from weather forecasting to global positioning.

"Scotland has always been famous for making ships - and today we're making spaceships," said Peter Anderson, head of business development at satellite maker Clyde Space.
