(Astronaut Doug Wheelock uses the ham radio. For an up-to-date look at space communications, Frank Bauer, Chair of ARISS, explains what’s new and what’s coming in a video from Tank Radio. Amateur Radio Enthusiast Makes Contact With The International Space Station. The world of amateur radio space and satellite communications continues to evolve with the launching of new satellites containing new capabilities each year. School Clubs ARISS Amateur Radio on the International Space Station School Clubs School Club Recommendations So, you’d like to start a school club Or, need some ideas to keep yours going Here are some suggestions for you. NASA astronaut Mike Fincke uses the amateur radio on board the International Space Station to talk with crew at the Palmer Research Station in Antarctica in 2004. Students have the opportunity to learn about space technologies and the technologies involved with space communications through exploration of amateur radio. Having four antennas also ensures that ham radio operations can continue aboard the station should one or more of the antennas fail. We were treated to more Slow Scan Television (SSTV) pictures from the International Space Station (ISS) on the weekend of April 11/12. ARISS provides opportunities for the school community (students, teachers, families and community members) to become more aware of the substantial benefits of human spaceflight and the exploration and discovery that occur on spaceflight journeys. Each of the four antennas can support amateur radio operations on multiple frequencies and allow for simultaneous automatic and crew-tended operations. The SUWS SDR at Farnham can even receive the 143.625 MHz ISS comms channel. Students learn about life on board the ISS and explore Earth from space through science and math activities.
Current application forms are available at: Īmateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) inspires students, worldwide, to pursue interests and careers in science, technology, engineering and math through amateur radio communications opportunities with the International Space Station (ISS) on-orbit crew. If you are interested, please contact Roger for more information and qualifications.
At this time, we are seeking a school with a focus towards STEM that would serve as our communications point with ISS.
#AMATEUR RADIO INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION SOFTWARE#
To date, we have a functioning station (and backup) comprised of radio, rotatable antenna, and computer software for tracking. In March of 2017, MRAC began its quest to communicate with the International Space Station via amateur radio linking students interested in space communications with astronauts aboard ISS.
