Amateur Radio on the International Space Station?
?
Contact Opportunity?
?
Call for Proposals?
?
Upcoming Proposal Window is February 1, 2020 to March 31, 2020
?
The Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) Program is
seeking formal and informal education institutions and organizations,
individually or working together, to host an Amateur Radio contact with a
crew member on board the ISS.? ARISS is happy to announce a proposal window
will open February 1, 2020 for contacts that would be held between January
1, 2021 and June 30, 2021. Crew scheduling and ISS orbits will determine the
exact contact dates. To maximize these radio contact opportunities, ARISS is
looking for organizations that will draw large numbers of participants and
integrate the contact into a well-developed education plan.?
?
?
?
The proposal window for contacts between January 1, 2021 and June 30, 2021
will open on February 1, 2020 and close on March 31, 2020.? Proposal
information and documents can be found at www.ariss.org. Two ARISS
Introductory Webinar sessions will be held on November 7, 2019. The first is
at 6:00 PM ET and the second is at 9:00 PM ET. The same material will be
covered during both sessions, so choose the session that best fits your
schedule. The Eventbrite link to sign up
is?https://ariss-introductory-webinar-fall-2019.eventbrite.com?.
?
The Opportunity?
?
Crew members aboard the International Space Station will participate in
scheduled Amateur Radio contacts. These radio contacts are approximately 10
minutes in length and allow students to interact with the astronauts through
a question-and-answer session.?
?
An ARISS contact is a voice-only communication opportunity via Amateur Radio
between astronauts and cosmonauts aboard the space station and classrooms
and communities. ARISS contacts afford education audiences the opportunity
to learn firsthand from astronauts what it is like to live and work in space
and to learn about space research conducted on the ISS. Students also will
have an opportunity to learn about satellite communication, wireless
technology, and radio science. Because of the nature of human spaceflight
and the complexity of scheduling activities aboard the ISS, organizations
must demonstrate flexibility to accommodate changes in dates and times of
the radio contact.?
?
Amateur Radio organizations around the world with the support of NASA and
space agencies in Russia, Canada, Japan and Europe present educational
organizations with this opportunity. The ham radio organizations' volunteer
efforts provide the equipment and operational support to enable
communication between crew on the ISS and students around the world using
Amateur Radio.??

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 (STEAM)
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

Awesome work Joe!
Glad UMass has such a lousy orientation :-)
Thanks, Heimir. K1JT did some work there a few years back that got a bit
of notice, so I'm glad to get noticed also.
I am considering adjusting the response to the APIs in case something goes
wrong:
{
"payload": [],
"errors": [{
"code": 1,
"description": "Resource is bad"
},
]
}
Additionally, HTTP Status Codes in the 400-599 range are sent as a secondary
indication of a problem.
Speaking of things going wrong, QO-100 has no "passes" as such. Except at
the very edge of the footprint it never rises and sets. I'd love to hear
ideas on how to handle this case.

Good morning!
I will be roving today, January 16th. My goal is to make the EM81/EM82 grid
line for the following passes:
16:49z SO50
17:11z AO-92
17:23 CAS-4B
17:55z AO-91.
However, if I'm unable to get to the gridline itself in time, I will plan on
operating two passes in EM82 & two in EM81.
All logs will be uploaded to LOTW.

Joe,
I really like your suggestion for the API response format. As it is a
breaking change, it would be most convenient to implement it as /v2/ of the
API, so everybody can migrate to it in a timely manner. Let me know when
you have something to test, and I will start working on a new version of my
app to use it.
The QO-100 cannot be treated as a LEO satellite because it does not fit the
computing model. The AOS happened just once, when it came operational and
LOS will not happen until it is turned off to die! For us over here in the
Americas AOS will never happen :-( But it's Azimuth and Elevation can of
course be computed, but it is just a function of the location of the
observer.

An International Space Station school contact has been planned with
participants at Ontario Science Centre, Toronto, Canada on 22 Jan. The event
is scheduled to begin at approximately 17:21 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 OR4ISS and IK1SLD. The contact should be audible over
Italy 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.
Story:
Jean Moffet has volunteered at the Ontario Science Centre's amateur radio
station VE3OSC for more than 30 years, sharing her knowledge of and passion
for ham radio with countless visitors. Having recently celebrated her 96th
birthday, Jean indicated one of her bucket list items is to speak to an
astronaut aboard the International Space Station (ISS). To honour her
invaluable contribution, the Science Centre is working with the Amateur
Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) Canada to help Jean check
this item off her list.
Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:
1. Did you have an opinion about extra-terrestrial life before being on
the ISS; has being on the ISS changed your views?
2. Being a mature woman, I have done a lot of cleaning. Has seeing
Earth from near-space given you any thoughts on modifying existing
technology, say attachments to airplanes, to help with excess
greenhouse gas clean-up?
3. Have you seen space junk? How bad is the problem?
4. Did you always want to be an astronaut? What did your parents think?
5. What personal item did you bring with you and why?
6. What do you miss most about your usual life?
7. What is the most stressful situation in space you have experienced
and how did it turn out?
8. What life lesson have you brought back that you can share with us
from your most stressful situation in space?
9. How do you relieve boredom on ISS? Do you play with fidget toys,
Silly Putty, games, music?
10. Does food taste different on the space station? How do you deal

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,
