Triple header set for Sept 22

ARISS

Friday, September 22, will be a sort of "triple witching day" for the Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) program. For the first time since the inaugural ARISS school contact in December 2000, students at three schools will have the opportunity in the same day to speak with three of the six space travelers now aboard the ISS. All three QSOs will be direct on VHF.

NASA Welcomes Space Shuttle Crew Back to Earth

Space Shuttle

The Space Shuttle Atlantis and its crew are home after a 12-day journey of more than 4.9 million miles in space. The mission, STS-115, succeeded in restarting assembly of the International Space Station. The crew delivered and installed the massive P3/P4 truss, an integral part of the station's backbone, and two sets of solar arrays that will eventually provide one quarter of the station's power.

Does Ansari have a licence?

I saw she made as school contact using RS0ISS.
Did she get a licence before she left? I have missed that part...
