After a seemingly long period when the astronaut and cosmonaut hams on
board the International Space Station seemed only to be making pre-
planned contacts with schools, random contacts are back. For several
days last week, Colonel Doug Wheelock, KF5BOC, took to the air from the
orbital outpost to talk to hams around the globe. Here's a time

Girl Guides of Canada - Radio contact with ISS
The Girl Guides of Canada have been scheduled for an Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) contact on Friday, July 16 at 17:47 UTC. Girl Guides and Girl Scouts, ages 12-17, are participating in the Guiding Mosaic 2010 which is being held July 8-17 at Guelph Lake, Ontario to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Girl Guides in Canada. The event focuses on girls doing program work in various fields including science and technology, sports, waterfront and arts and crafts. They have prepared for their ARISS contact by studying orbital mechanics and learning about the value of successful international partnerships.
