Forgotton UK?
This may sound like 'sour grapes' but most voice contacts are with the USA or Italy...Infact there was a school contact to a US school this evening that had to be made from an Internet linked station in Italy.
Has the ISS forgotten us in the UK....Just in case you have forgotten....We are in between !!!!! and before you all say 'it's done by skeds' yes I know but I bet if there was any 'spare time' for a rag chew it would be when over the USA (funny that isn't it!)
Now I'll sit back and take a bashing.

Mike flew right over the house. Space station was nice and bright and clear. It was really cool. Tried a call but Mike wasn't on. Safe travels all, safe travels.

Hello everybody.
I'm not sure this is the right place to post the following text. I've always been fascinated by the ISS, and sometimes I daydream of different aspects of this adventure.
The following text is prompted by the fact that a lot of material is lost in the functioning of the ISS, and in space programs in general, so I tried to imagine how to resolve the issue.
