Mayaguana

The Bahamas

Mayaguana, in The Bahamas, shares 44 connections with 1813 other places across 9 topics, dominated by its natural environment and an unexpected space-age chapter. Nature topics account for the bulk of its connections, grounded in species including Bahamian flamingos, Bartsch's iguanas, and plovers. During NASA's Project Mercury and Apollo program, the island hosted a missile tracking station at what is now Mayaguana Airport. Its strongest co-connection overlaps are with The Bahamas, the United States, and Florida. The island relies on the Bahamian mail boat system as its primary form of import and export.
