Subject: [amsat-bb] Upcoming ARISS contact with Walter Murray
Collegiate	Institute, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada
Message-ID: <70536B3FA9124E0787E4259E3E5D98C4@???>
Content-Type: text/plain;	charset="iso-8859-1"

An International Space Station school contact has been planned with
participants at Walter Murray Collegiate Institute, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan,
Canada on 27 May. The event is scheduled to begin at approximately 20:18
UTC. It is recommended that you start listening approximately 10 minutes
before this time.The duration of the contact is approximately 9 minutes and
30 seconds. The contact will be a telebridge between NA1SS and VK6MJ. The
contact should be audible over portions of Australia and adjacent areas.
Interested parties are invited to listen in on the 145.80 MHz downlink. The
contact is expected to be conducted in English and French.





Story:



Walter Murray Collegiate is in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Along with its many
standard course, it has some excellent engineering/ electronics courses and
a very extensive hands-on "shop" class which involves machinery, welding,
carpentry, car repair etc. There is also very busy "tech" club that is
involved in robotics as well as a "science" club that this year was very
excited about the "Tomatosphere" project.



Contact day with David will be very busy. We will, have on site, the
University of Saskatchewan engineering faculty represented by USST, the
University of Saskatchewan Space Design Team. USST will be demonstrating 2
of their projects that day. One team will represent and demonstrate
CubeSat?s and the other team will engage all the students with the Rover
project. As well RASC Saskatoon will be there will solar scopes and will be
in the auditorium with demonstration telescopes. As well ARISS/ SARC will
have their amateur radio equipment for all the students.







Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:



1. How do relations between countries on Earth impact relationships between

   astronauts of different nationalities?

2. What did you bring with you to space?

3. What are your next goals after you return to Earth?

4. As technology develops and it becomes safer and more economically

   efficient to send unmanned flights to space, what argument would you give

   in favour of continued investment in manned space flight?

5. Combien de force ressentiez-vous lorsque vous quittez l'atmosph?re et

   ?chappez l'attraction gravitationnelle de la Terre?  Translation: How much

   force do you feel when you are leaving the atmosphere and escaping the

   gravitational pull of Earth?

6. What do you think is the most interesting experiment you are working on

   currently on the ISS and why is it important?

7. Why do you think space travel is important in an age where problems like

   climate change exist?

8. With climate change growing on Earth, do you think the rate of space

   debris will cause a problem in the future? If so, what could be done about

   it?

9. How can people not interested in actually going to space help support

   Canadian space programs? Is there anything random civilians, high school

   students, etc. can do to help explore the galaxy?

10. Should we be considering the legal and economic impact of colonizing Mars

    or is it too early to consider at this time?

11. What do you think is the future of space exploration? Do you have ideas

    of what it might look like?

12. In space, you have to be very careful with the resources you are offered.

    How can you apply this to being more eco-friendly on Earth?

13. What is the most memorable view you remember seeing when you were

    traveling to, or actually at, the ISS?

14. What's something that you never realized until going into space?

15. Are the computers and parts of the ISS still from when it was sent into

    space or were they upgraded?

16. I know you have changed career paths a lot. What was the most valuable

    thing you learned while finding your passion as an astronaut?

17. What utensils are used to write in space? Can you use pens and pencils?

    If not, what do you use?

18. Do you think more resources should be spent on saving Earth or leaving

    it?

19. How has going into space and the experience of observing the universe

    from such a surreal perspective contributed to your opinion on the

    existence of life in other places?

20. Is medicine different in space? If so, how?

About ARISS



Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a cooperative
venture of international amateur radio societies and the space agencies that
support the International Space Station (ISS).  In the United States,
sponsors are the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), the American
Radio Relay League (ARRL), the ISS National Lab and National Aeronautics and
Space Administration (NASA). The primary goal of ARISS is to promote
exploration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM)
topics by organizing scheduled contacts via amateur radio between crew
members aboard the ISS and students in classrooms or public forms. Before
and during these radio contacts, students, educators, parents, and
communities learn about space, space technologies, and amateur radio. For
more information, see www.ariss.org.



Thank you & 73,

David - AA4KN

Is the camera turned on? I was planning on using HDSDR and FoxTelem. I
think that there are data packets sent as Data Under Voice (DUV) in the
audio band from 0 to 200Hz in the same FM channel as the transponder audio.
Can you really receive an entire image during a short satellite pass in
that little bandwidth? Do other Oscar satellites have cameras?

 I have a Radio Sport RS-2 that I use with my FT-847 and FT-1000D. A bit
expensive, but excellent build quality, fit-and-finish, and they sound great.

Best headset I've ever owned, and I've had quite a few!

"A bit expensive" - yeah!  that's an understatement!   For that price, I'll
buy a Heil boomset and a radio!

The camera on AO-92 is only active when commanded by the ground team and
does not use the DUV, but rather "takes over" the downlink and uses a wider
signal.

Adjustment to your SDR software is required when a camera download is
active.  The normal settings that one might use for voice and/or DUV data
will not work for the camera downlinks.

Here is a screen shot of one SDR app (HDSDR) where you can see the 20k of RF
bandwidth and 15k of audio output bandwidth being used to successfully
received data from the camera when it was active.

https://www.qsl.net/k/k4kdr//images/ao92-hdsdr-camera-active.png

Of course the FoxTelem software needs to be set appropriately as well to
accept the wideband data.   "Auto" is the best setting since it allows the
FoxTelem dashboard to work with both DUV data or broadband camera downlinks
when they are active.

Someone else might be able to confirm the status of any other cameras
currently active or planned for future missions.

Is the camera turned on? I was planning on using HDSDR and FoxTelem. I
think that there are data packets sent as Data Under Voice (DUV) in the
audio band from 0 to 200Hz in the same FM channel as the transponder audio.
Can you really receive an entire image during a short satellite pass in
that little bandwidth? Do other Oscar satellites have cameras?
